SUMMARY
A. CONTRACTS OFFERED
Individual and group tax-deferred Variable Annuity Contracts (see "C.
Taxation of Annuities in General," page___). Generally, the Contracts are
purchased by completing an application or an order to purchase a Contract
and submitting it, along with the initial Premium Payment, to HL&A for its
approval. A Contract Owner may at any time, within 10 days of delivery of
a Contract sold hereunder, return the Contract to HL&A at its Home Office
and the value of the Contract (without deduction for any charges normally
assessed thereunder) will be refunded. The Contract Owner bears the
investment risk during the period prior to the Company's receipt of request
for cancellation except for Contract owners in Georgia, North Carolina,
South Carolina, Washington, West Virginia, Utah, and other states where
required by law, who will be refunded the premium (see "How is my Premium
Payment credited?" page___).
B. ELIGIBLE PURCHASERS
Any individual, group, or trust may purchase the Contracts, including any
trustee or custodian for a retirement plan which qualifies for special
federal tax treatment under the Internal Revenue Code, including individual
retirement annuities ("Qualified Contracts"). (See "Federal Tax
Considerations" commencing on page___and Appendix I commencing on page___.)
C. MINIMUM PREMIUM PAYMENTS
The minimum initial Premium Payment is $1,000. Thereafter, the minimum
payment is $500. Certain plans or programs may make smaller periodic
premium payments. (See "What size Premium Payments must I make?" page___.)
D. UNDERLYING INVESTMENTS FOR CONTRACTS
Shares of Hartford Advisers Fund, Inc., Hartford Capital Appreciation Fund,
Inc., Hartford Bond Securities Fund, Inc., Hartford Index Fund, Inc.,
Hartford International Advisers Fund, Inc., Hartford International
Opportunities Fund, Inc., Hartford Mortgage Securities Fund, Inc., Hartford
Stock Fund, Inc., HVA Money Market Fund, Inc., and such other funds as

Fund, Inc.
<PAGE>

E. CHARGES UNDER THE CONTRACTS
1. SALES EXPENSES
There is no deduction for sales expenses from Premium Payments when
made. However, a contingent deferred sales charge may be assessed
against Contract Values when they are surrendered. (See "Charges
under the Contracts" commencing on page___.)
The length of time from receipt of a Premium Payment to the time of
surrender determines the contingent deferred sales charge. For this
purpose, Premium Payments will be deemed to be surrendered in the
order in which they are received and all surrenders will be first from
Premium Payments and then from other Contract Values. The charge is a
percentage of the amount withdrawn (not to exceed the aggregate amount
of the Premium Payments made) and equals:
<TABLE>

(Number of Years)
<S> <C>
7% 1
6% 2
5% 3
4% 4
3% 5
2% 6
1% 7
0% 8 or more
</TABLE>
No contingent deferred sales charge will be assessed in the event of
death of the Annuitant or Contract Owner, or upon the exercise of the
withdrawal privilege or if Contract Values are applied to an Annuity
option provided for under the Contract (except that a surrender out of
an Annuity Option Four will be subject to a contingent deferred sales
charge where applicable). (See "Is there ever a time when the sales
charges do not apply?" commencing on page___.)
2. WITHDRAWAL PRIVILEGE
Withdrawals of up to 10% per Contract Year, on a noncumulative basis, of
the Premium Payments made to a Contract may be made without the
imposition of the
<PAGE>
16
contingent deferred sales charge. (See "Is there ever a time when the
sales charges do not apply?" commencing on page___.) Certain plans or
programs may have different withdrawal privileges.
3. ANNUAL MAINTENANCE FEE
The Contracts provide for an administrative charge in the amount of
$25.00 to be deducted from Contract Values each Contract Year.
Contracts with a Contract Value of $50,000 or more at time of Contract
Anniversary will not be assessed this fee. (See "Are there any
administrative charges?" commencing on page___.)
4. MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISKS
For assuming the mortality and expense risks under the Contracts, HL&A
will make a 1.25% per annum charge against all Contract Values held in
the Separate Account, except the Fixed Account. (See "What is the
mortality and expense risk charge?" commencing on page___.)
5. PREMIUM TAXES
A deduction will be made for Premium Taxes for Contracts sold in certain
states. (See "How much are the deductions for Premium Taxes?"
commencing on page___.)
6. CHARGES BY THE FUNDS
The Funds are subject to certain fees, charges and expenses (see the
Prospectus for the Funds attached hereto).
F. LIQUIDITY
Subject to any applicable charges, the Contracts may be surrendered, or
portions of the value of such Contracts may be withdrawn, at any time prior
to the Annuity Commencement Date. However, if less than $1,000 remains in a
Contract as a result of a withdrawal, HL&A may terminate the Contract in its
entirety (see "How can a Contract be redeemed or surrendered?" commencing on
page___).
G. MINIMUM DEATH BENEFITS
A minimum death benefit is provided in the event of death of the Annuitant
or Contract Owner prior to age 85 and before Annuity payments have
commenced. (See "What would my Beneficiary receive as a death benefit?"
commencing on page___.)
<PAGE>
17
H. ANNUITY OPTIONS
The Annuity Commencement Date may not be deferred beyond the Annuitant's
90th birthday except in certain states where the Annuitant's Commencement
Date may not be deferred beyond the Annuitant's 85th birthday. If a
Contract Owner does not elect otherwise, the Contract Value (less applicable
Premium Taxes) will be applied on the Annuity Commencement Date under the
second option to provide a life annuity with 120 monthly payments certain
(see "What Annuity Commencement Date and Form of Annuity may I elect?"
commencing on page___).
I. VOTING RIGHTS OF CONTRACT OWNERS
Contract Owners will have the right to vote on matters affecting the
underlying Fund to the extent that proxies are solicited by such Fund. If a
Contract Owner does not vote, HL&A shall vote such interest in the same
proportion as shares of the Fund for which instructions have been received
by HL&A (see "What are my voting rights?" commencing on page___).

PERFORMANCE RELATED INFORMATION
The Separate Account may advertise certain performance related information
concerning its Sub-Accounts. Performance information about a Sub-Account is
based on the Sub-Account's past performance only and is no indication of future
performance.
Advisers Fund, Capital Appreciation Fund, The Bond Fund, Dividend and Growth
Fund, HVA Money Market Fund, Index Fund, International Advisers Fund,
International Opportunities Fund, Mortgage Securities Fund, Stock Fund, and U.S.
Government Money Market Fund Sub-Accounts may include total return in
advertisements or other sales material.
When a Sub-Account advertises its standardized total return, it will usually be
calculated for one year, five years, and ten years or some other relevant
periods if the Sub-Account has not been in existence for at least ten years.
Total return is measured by comparing the value of an investment in the
Sub-Account at the beginning of the relevant period to the value of the
investment at the end of the period (assuming the deduction of any contingent
deferred sales charge which would be payable if the investment were redeemed at
the end of the period).
In addition to the standardized total return, the Sub-Account may advertise a
non-standardized total return. This figure will usually be calculated for one
year, five years, and ten years or other periods. Non-standardized total return
is measured in the same manner as the standardized total return described above,
except that the contingent deferred sales charge and the Annual Maintenance Fee
are not deducted. Therefore, non-standardized total return for a Sub-Account is
higher than standardized total return for a Sub-Account.
The Bond Fund and Mortgage Securities Fund Sub-Accounts may advertise yield in
addition to total return. The yield will be computed in the following manner:
The net investment income per unit earned during a recent one month period is
divided by the unit value on the last day of the period. This figure reflects
the recurring charges at the Separate Account level including the Annual
Maintenance Fee.
The HVA Money Market Fund and U.S. Government Money Market Sub-Accounts may
advertise yield and effective yield. The yield of a Sub-Account is based upon
the income earned by the Sub-Account over a seven-day period and then
annualized, i.e. the income earned in the period is assumed to be earned every
seven days over a 52-week period and stated as a percentage of the investment.
Effective yield is calculated similarly but when annualized, the income earned
by the investment is assumed to be reinvested in Sub-Account units and thus
compounded in the course of a 52-week period. Yield and effective yield reflect
the recurring charges at the Separate Account level including the Annual
Maintenance Fee.
<PAGE>
20
The Separate Account may also disclose yield, standard total return, and
non-standard total return for periods prior to the date the Separate Account
commenced operations. For periods prior to the date the Separate Account
commenced operations, performance information for the Sub-Accounts will be
calculated based on the performance of the underlying Funds and the assumption
that the Sub-Accounts were in existence for the same periods as those of the
underlying Funds, with a level of charges equal to those currently assessed
against the Sub-Accounts.
INTRODUCTION
This Prospectus has been designed to provide you with the necessary information
to make a decision on purchasing an individual or group tax-deferred Variable
Annuity Contract offered by HL&A in the Fixed Account and/or a series of
Separate Account One. This Prospectus describes only the elements of the
Contracts pertaining to the Separate Account and the Fixed Account except where
reference to the General Account is specifically made. Please read the Glossary
of Special Terms on pages and prior to reading this Prospectus to
familiarize yourself with the terms being used.
THE CONTRACT,
SEPARATE ACCOUNT ONE, AND THE FIXED ACCOUNT
What are the Contracts?
The Contract is an individual or group tax-deferred Variable Annuity
Contract designed for retirement planning purposes. Initially there are no
deductions from your Premium Payments (except for Premium Taxes, if
applicable) so your entire Premium Payment is put to work in the investment
Sub-Account(s) of your choice or the Fixed Account. Currently, there are
ten Sub-Accounts, each investing in a different underlying Fund with its
own distinct investment objectives. More Sub-Accounts may be made
available by HL&A at a later time. You pick the Sub-Account(s) with the
investment objectives that meet your needs. You may select one or more
Sub-Accounts and/or the Fixed Account and determine the percentage of your
Premium Payment that is put into a Sub-Account or the Fixed Account. You
may also transfer assets among the Sub-Accounts and the Fixed Account so
that your investment program meets your specific needs over time. There
are some limitations on the amounts in each Sub-Account and the Fixed
Account. These limitations are described later in this Prospectus. In
addition, there are certain other limitations on withdrawals and transfers
of amounts in the Sub-Accounts and the Fixed Account, as described in this
Prospectus. (See "Charges Under the Contract" for a description of the
charges for redeeming a Contract and other charges made under the
Contract.)
<PAGE>
21
Generally, the Contract contains the five optional Annuity forms described
later in this Prospectus. Options 2, 4 and 5 are available with respect to
Qualified Contracts only if the guaranteed payment period is less than the
life expectancy of the Annuitant at the time the option becomes effective.
Such life expectancy shall be computed on the basis of the mortality table
prescribed by the IRS, or if none is prescribed, the mortality table then
in use by HL&A.
The Contract Owner may select an Annuity Commencement Date and an Annuity
option which may be on a fixed or variable basis, or a combination thereof.
The Annuity Commencement Date may not be deferred beyond the Annuitant's
90th birthday in most states, except in certain states, where the Annuity
Commencement Date may not be deferred beyond the Annuitant's 85th birthday.
The Annuity Commencement Date and/or the Annuity option may be changed from
time to time, but any such change must be made at least 30 days prior to
the date on which Annuity payments are scheduled to begin. If you do not
elect otherwise, payments will begin at the Annuitant's age 90, except in
certain states, payments will begin at the Annuitant's age 85 under Option
2 with 120 monthly payments certain (Option 1 for Texas Contracts).
When an Annuity is effected under a Contract, unless otherwise specified,
Contract Values held in the Sub-Accounts will be applied to provide a
Variable Annuity based on the pro rata amount in the various Sub-Accounts.
Fixed Account Contract Values will be applied to provide a Fixed Account
Annuity. Variable Annuity payments will vary in accordance with the
investment performance of the Sub-Accounts you have selected. You should
consider the question of allocation of Contract Values among Sub-Accounts
of the Separate Account and the General Account of HL&A to make certain
that Annuity payments are based on the investment alternative best suited
to your needs for retirement. The Contract allows the Contract Owner to
change the Sub-Accounts on which variable payments are based after payments
have commenced once every three (3) months. Any Fixed Annuity allocation
may not be changed.
HL&A reserves the right to modify the Contract, but only if such
modification: (i) is necessary to make the Contract or the Separate Account
comply with any law or regulation issued by a governmental agency to which
HL&A is subject; or (ii) is necessary to assure continued qualification of
the Contract under the Code or other federal or state laws relating to
retirement annuities or annuity Contracts; or (iii) is necessary to reflect
a change in the operation of the Separate Account or the Sub-Account(s) or
(iv) provides additional Separate Account options or (v) withdraws Separate
Account options. In the event of any such modification HL&A will provide
notice to the Contract Owner or to the payee(s) during the Annuity period.
HL&A may also make appropriate endorsement in the Contract to reflect such
modification.
<PAGE>

Who can buy these Contracts?
The individual and group Variable Annuity Contracts offered under this
Prospectus may be purchased by any individual ("Non-Qualified Contract") or
by a trustee or custodian for a retirement plan qualified under Sections
401(a) or 403(a) of the Internal Revenue Code; annuity purchase plans
adopted by public school systems and certain tax-exempt organizations
according to Section 403(b) of the Internal Revenue Code; Individual
Retirement Annuities adopted according to Section 408 of the Internal
Revenue Code; employee pension plans established for employees by a state,
a political subdivision of a state, or an agency or instrumentality of
either a state or a political subdivision of a state, and certain eligible
deferred compensation plans as defined in Section 457 of the Internal
Revenue Code ("Qualified Contracts").
What is the Separate Account and how does it operate?
The Separate Account was established on May 20, 1991, in accordance with
authorization by the Board of Directors of HL&A. It is the Separate
Account in which HL&A sets aside and invests the assets attributable to
variable annuity Contracts, including the Contracts sold under this
Prospectus. Although the Separate Account is an integral part of HL&A, it
is registered as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act
of 1940. This registration does not, however, involve Securities and
Exchange Commission supervision of the management or the investment
practices or policies of the Separate Account or HL&A. The Separate
Account meets the definition of "separate account" under federal securities
law.
Under Connecticut law, the assets of the Separate Account attributable to
the Contracts offered under this Prospectus are held for the benefit of the
owners of, and the persons entitled to payments under, those Contracts.
Income, gains, and losses, whether or not realized, from assets allocated
to the Separate Account, are, in accordance with the Contracts, credited to
or charged against the Separate Account. Also, the assets in the Separate
Account are not chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other
business HL&A may conduct. So, Contract Values allocated to the
Sub-Accounts will not be affected by the rate of return of HL&A's General
Account, nor by the investment performance of any of HL&A's other separate
accounts. However, all obligations arising under the Contracts are general
corporate obligations of HL&A.
Your investment in the Separate Account is allocated to one or more
Sub-Accounts as per your specifications. Each Sub-Account is invested
exclusively in the assets of one underlying Fund. Net Premium Payments and
proceeds of transfers between Sub-Accounts
<PAGE>
23
are applied to purchase shares in the appropriate Fund at net asset value
determined as of the end of the Valuation Period during which the payments
were received or the transfer made. All distributions from the Fund are
reinvested at net asset value. The value of your investment will therefore
vary in accordance with the net income and fluctuation in the individual
investments within the underlying Fund portfolio or portfolios. During the
Variable Annuity payout period, both your Annuity payments and reserve
values will vary in accordance with these factors.
HL&A does not guarantee the investment results of the Sub-Accounts or any
of the underlying investments. There is no assurance that the value of a
Contract during the years prior to retirement or the aggregate amount of
the Variable Annuity payments will equal the total of Premium Payments made
under the Contract. Since each underlying Fund has different investment
objectives, each is subject to different risks. These risks are more fully
described in the accompanying Fund Prospectus.
HL&A reserves the right, subject to compliance with the law, to substitute
the shares of any other registered investment company for the shares of any
Fund held by the Separate Account. Substitution may occur only if shares
of the Fund(s) become unavailable or if there are changes in applicable law
or interpretations of law. Current law requires notification to you of any
such substitution and approval of the Commission.
The Separate Account may be subject to liabilities arising from a Series of
the Separate Account whose assets are attributable to other variable
annuity Contracts or variable life insurance policies offered by the
Separate Account which are not described in this Prospectus.
What is the Fixed Account and how does it operate?
THAT PORTION OF THE CONTRACT RELATING TO THE FIXED ACCOUNT IS NOT
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 ("1933 ACT") AND THE FIXED
ACCOUNT IS NOT REGISTERED AS AN INVESTMENT COMPANY UNDER THE INVESTMENT
COMPANY ACT OF 1940 ("1940 ACT"). ACCORDINGLY, NEITHER THE FIXED ACCOUNT
NOR ANY INTERESTS THEREIN ARE SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OR RESTRICTIONS OF
THE 1933 ACT OR THE 1940 ACT, AND THE DISCLOSURE REGARDING THE FIXED
ACCOUNT HAS NOT BEEN REVIEWED BY THE STAFF OF THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE
COMMISSION. THE FOLLOWING DISCLOSURE ABOUT THE FIXED ACCOUNT MAY BE
SUBJECT TO CERTAIN GENERALLY APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF THE FEDERAL
SECURITIES LAWS REGARDING THE ACCURACY AND COMPLETENESS OF DISCLOSURE.
<PAGE>
24
Premium Payments and Contract Values allocated to the Fixed Account become
a part of the general assets of HL&A. HL&A invests the assets of the
General Account in accordance with applicable law governing the investments
of Insurance Company General Accounts.
Currently, HL&A guarantees that it will credit interest at a rate of not
less than 4% per year, compounded annually, to amounts allocated to the
Fixed Account under the Contracts. However, HL&A reserves the right to
change the rate according to state insurance law. HL&A may credit interest
at a rate in excess of 4% per year; however, HL&A is not obligated to
credit any interest in excess of 4% per year. There is no specific formula
for the determination of excess interest credits. Some of the factors that
HL&A may consider in determining whether to credit excess interest to
amounts allocated to the Fixed Account and the amount thereof, are general
economic trends, rates of return currently available and anticipated on
HL&A's investments, regulatory and tax requirements and competitive
factors. ANY INTEREST CREDITED TO AMOUNTS ALLOCATED TO THE FIXED ACCOUNT
IN EXCESS OF 4% PER YEAR WILL BE DETERMINED IN THE SOLE DISCRETION OF HL&A.
THE OWNER ASSUMES THE RISK THAT INTEREST CREDITED TO FIXED ACCOUNT
ALLOCATIONS MAY NOT EXCEED THE MINIMUM GUARANTEE OF 4% FOR ANY GIVEN YEAR.
May I transfer assets between Sub-Accounts?
You may transfer the values of your Sub-Account allocations from one or
more Sub-Accounts to another free of charge. However, HL&A reserves the
right to limit the number of transfers to twelve (12) per Contract Year,
with no two (2) transfers occurring on consecutive Valuation Days.
Transfers by telephone may be made by calling (800) 862-6668. Telephone
transfers may not be permitted by some states for their residents who
purchase variable annuities.
HL&A may permit the Contract Owner to preauthorize transfers among Sub-
Accounts and between Sub-Accounts and the Fixed Account under certain
circumstances. The policy of HL&A and its agents and affiliates is that
they will not be responsible for losses resulting from acting upon
telephone requests reasonably believed to be genuine. HL&A will employ
reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by
telephone are genuine; otherwise, HL&A may be liable for any losses due to
unauthorized or fraudulent instructions. The procedures HL&A follows for
transactions initiated by telephone include requirements that callers on
behalf of a Contract Owner identify themselves and the Contract Owner by
name and social security number. All transfer instructions by telephone
are tape recorded.
<PAGE>
25
Subject to the exceptions set forth in the following paragraph, the right
to reallocate Contract Values between the Sub-Accounts is subject to
modification if HL&A determines, in its sole opinion, that the exercise of
that right by one or more Contract Owners is, or would be, to the
disadvantage of other Contract Owners. Any modification could be applied
to transfers to or from some or all of the Sub-Accounts and could include,
but not be limited to, the requirement of a minimum time period between
each transfer, not accepting transfer requests of an agent acting under a
power of attorney on behalf of more than one Contract Owner, or limiting
the dollar amount that may be transferred between the Sub-Accounts and the
Fixed Account by a Contract Owner at any one time. Such restrictions may
be applied in any manner reasonably designed to prevent any use of the
transfer right which is considered by HL&A to be to the disadvantage of
other Contract Owners.
For Contracts issued in the State of New York, the reservation of rights
set forth in the preceding paragraph is limited to (i) requiring up to a
maximum of 10 Valuation Days between each transfer: (ii) limiting the
amount to be transferred on any one Valuation Day to no more than $2
million; and (iii) upon 30 days prior written notice, to only accepting
transfer instructions from the Contract Owner and not from the Contract
Owner's representative, agent or person acting under a power of attorney
for the Contract Owner.
Currently, and with respect to Contracts issued in all states, the only
restriction in effect is that Hartford will not accept instructions from
agents acting under a power of attorney of multiple Contract Owners whose
accounts aggregate more than $2 million, unless the agent has entered into
a third party transfer services agreement with Hartford.
Transfers between the Sub-Accounts may be made both before and after
Annuity payments commence (limited to once a quarter) provided that the
minimum allocation to any Sub-Account may not be less than $500. No
minimum balance is required in any Sub-Account.
May I transfer assets between the Fixed Account and the Sub-Accounts?
Subject to the restrictions set forth above, transfers from the Fixed
Account into a Sub-Account may be made at any time during the Contract
Year. The maximum amount which may be transferred from the Fixed Account
during any Contract Year is the greater of 30% of the Fixed Account balance
as of the last Contract Anniversary or the greatest amount of any prior
transfer from the Fixed Account. If HL&A permits preauthorized transfers
from the Fixed Account to the Sub-Accounts, this restriction is
inapplicable. Also, if any interest rate is renewed at a rate of at least
one percentage point less than the previous rate, the Contract Owner may
elect to transfer up to 100% of the funds receiving the reduced rate within
60 days of notification of the interest rate decrease. Generally,
transfers
<PAGE>
26
may not be made from any Sub-Account into the Fixed Account for the
six-month period following any transfer from the Fixed Account into one or
more of the Sub-Accounts. HL&A reserves the right to defer transfers from
the Fixed Account for up to six months from the date of request.
OPERATION OF THE CONTRACT
How is my Premium Payment credited?
The balance of each initial Premium Payment remaining after the deduction
of any applicable Premium Tax is credited to your Contract within two
business days of receipt of a properly completed application or an order to
purchase a Contract and the initial Premium Payment by HL&A at its Home
Office, P.O. Box 5085, Hartford, CT 06102-5085. It will be credited to
the Sub-Account(s) and/or the Fixed Account in accordance with your
election. If the application or other information is incomplete when
received, the balance of each initial Premium Payment, after deduction of
any applicable Premium Tax, will be credited to the Sub-Account(s) or the
Fixed Account within five business days of receipt. If the initial Premium
Payment is not credited within five business days, the Premium Payment will
be immediately returned unless you have been informed of the delay and
request that the Premium Payment not be returned.
The number of Accumulation Units in each Sub-Account to be credited to a
Contract will be determined by dividing the portion of the Premium Payment
being credited to each Sub-Account by the value of an Accumulation Unit in
that Sub-Account on that date.
Subsequent Premium Payments are priced on the Valuation Day received by
HL&A in its Home Office or other designated administrative offices.
What size Premium Payments must I make?
The minimum initial Premium Payment is $1,000. Thereafter, the minimum
Premium Payment is $500. Certain plans may make smaller periodic payments.
Each Premium Payment may be split among the various Sub-Accounts and/or the
Fixed Account subject to minimum amounts then in effect.
What if I am not satisfied with my purchase?
If you are not satisfied with your purchase you may surrender the Contract
by returning it within ten days (or longer in some states) after you
receive it. A written request for cancellation must accompany the
Contract. In such event, HL&A will, without deduction for any charges
normally assessed thereunder, pay you an amount equal to the sum of (i) the
<PAGE>
27
difference between the Premium Payment and the amounts allocated to the Sub
Account(s) and/or the Fixed Account under the Contract and (ii) the value
of the Contract on the date of surrender attributable to the amounts so
allocated. You bear the investment risk during the period prior to HL&A's
receipt of request for cancellation. HL&A will refund the premium paid
only for individual retirement annuities (if returned within seven days of
receipt) and in those states where required by law.
May I assign or transfer my Contract?
Ownership of a Contract described herein is generally assignable. However,
if the Contracts are issued pursuant to some form of Qualified Plan, it is
possible that the ownership of the Contracts may not be transferred or
assigned depending on the type of qualified retirement plan involved. An
assignment of a Non-Qualified Contract may subject the assignment proceeds
to income taxes and certain penalty taxes. (See "Taxation of Annuities in
General - Non-Tax Qualified Purchasers" commencing on page___.)
How do I know what my Contract is worth?
The value of the Sub-Account investments under your Contract at any time
prior to the commencement of Annuity payments can be determined by
multiplying the total number of Accumulation Units credited to your Contract
in each Sub-Account by the then current Accumulation Unit values for the
applicable Sub-Account. The value of the Fixed Account under your Contract
will be the amount allocated to the Fixed Account plus interest credited.
You will be advised at least semiannually of the number of Accumulation
Units credited to each Sub-Account, the current Accumulation Unit values,
the Fixed Account value, and the total value of your Contract.
How is the Accumulation Unit value determined?
The Accumulation Unit value for each Sub-Account will vary to reflect the
investment experience of the applicable Fund and will be determined on each
Valuation Day by multiplying the Accumulation Unit value of the particular
Sub-Account on the preceding Valuation Day by a "Net Investment Factor" for
that Sub-Account for the Valuation Period then ended. The "Net Investment
Factor" for each of the Sub-Accounts is equal to the net asset value per
share of the corresponding Fund at the end of the Valuation Period (plus the
per share amount of any dividends or capital gains distributed by that Fund
if the ex-dividend date occurs in the Valuation Period then ended) divided
by the net asset value per share of the corresponding Fund at the beginning
of the Valuation Period. You should refer to the Prospectus for each of the
Funds which accompanies this Prospectus for a description of how the assets
of each Fund are valued since each determination has a direct bearing on the
Accumulation Unit value of the Sub-Account and therefore the value of a
<PAGE>
28
Contract. The Accumulation Unit Value is affected by the performance of the
underlying Fund(s), expenses and deduction of the charges described in this
Prospectus.
How are the underlying Fund shares valued?
The shares of the Fund are valued at net asset value on each Valuation Day.
A complete description of the valuation method used in valuing Fund shares
may be found in the accompanying Prospectus of the Funds.
How is the value of the Fixed Account determined?
HL&A will determine the value of the Fixed Account by crediting interest to
amounts allocated to the Fixed Account. The minimum Fixed Account interest
rate is 4%, compounded annually. HL&A may credit a lower minimum interest
rate according to state law. HL&A, also, may credit interest at rates
greater than the minimum Fixed Account interest rate.
PAYMENT OF BENEFITS
What would my Beneficiary receive as a death benefit?
The Contracts provide that in the event the Annuitant dies before the
selected Annuity Commencement Date, the Contingent Annuitant will become the
Annuitant. If the Annuitant dies before the Annuity Commencement Date and
either (a) there is no designated Contingent Annuitant,(b) the Contingent
Annuitant predeceases the Annuitant, or (c) if any Contract Owner dies
before the Annuity Commencement Date, the Beneficiary, as determined under
the Contract Control Provisions, will receive the Minimum Death Benefit as
determined on the date of receipt of due proof of death by HL&A in its Home
Office. With regard to Joint Contract Owners, at the first death of a joint
Contract Owner prior to the Annuity Commencement Date, the Beneficiary will
be the surviving Contract Owner notwithstanding that the beneficiary
designation may be different.
However, if, upon death prior to the Annuity Commencement Date, the
Annuitant or Contract Owner, as applicable, had not attained his 85th
birthday the Beneficiary will receive the greatest of (a) the Contract Value
determined as of the day written proof of death of such person is received
by HL&A, or (b) 100% of the total Premium Payments made to such Contract,
reduced by any prior surrenders, or (c) the Contract Value on the Specified
Contract Anniversary immediately preceding the date of death, increased by
the dollar amount of any Premium Payments made and reduced by the dollar
amount of any partial terminations since the immediately preceding Specified
Contract Anniversary in all states except North Carolina where the
Beneficiary will receive the greater of the Contract Value for the premium
payments as set forth in (a) and (b) above.
<PAGE>
29
If the deceased, the Annuitant or Contract Owner, as applicable, had
attained age 85, then the Death Benefit will equal the Contract Value.
Death Benefit proceeds will remain invested in the Separate Account in
accordance with the allocation instructions given by the Certificate Owner
until the proceeds are paid or HL&A receives new instructions from the
Beneficiary. The Death Benefit may be taken in one sum, payable within 7
days after the date Due Proof of Death is received, or under any of the
settlement options then being offered by the Company provided, however,
that: (a) in the event of the death of any Contract Owner prior to the
Annuity Commencement Date, the entire interest in the Contract will be
distributed within 5 years after the death of the Contract Owner and (b) in
the event of the death of any Contract Owner or Annuitant which occurs on or
after the Annuity Commencement Date, any remaining interest in the Contract
will be paid at least as rapidly as under the method of distribution in
effect at the time of death, or, if the benefit is payable over a period not
extending beyond the life expectancy of the Beneficiary or over the life of
the Beneficiary, such distribution must commence within one year of the date
of death. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of the Contract
Owner's death where the sole Beneficiary is the spouse of the Contract Owner
and the Annuitant or Contingent Annuitant is living, such spouse may elect,
in lieu of receiving the death benefit, to be treated as the Contract Owner.
The proceeds due on the death may be applied to provide variable payments,
fixed payments, or a combination of variable and fixed payments.
If the Contract is owned by a corporation or other non-individual, the Death
Benefit payable upon the death of the Annuitant prior to the Annuity
Commencement Date will be payable only as one sum or under the same
settlement options and in the same manner as if an individual Contract Owner
died on the date of the Annuitant's death.
For a discussion of the manner in which Annuity payments are determined and
may vary from month to month (see "How are Annuity payments determined?"
commencing on page___).
How can a Contract be redeemed or surrendered?
At any time prior to the Annuity Commencement Date, you have the right,
subject to any IRS provisions applicable thereto, to surrender the value of
the Contract in whole or in part.
FULL SURRENDERS
At any time prior to the Annuity Commencement Date (and after the Annuity
Commencement Date with respect to values applied to Option 4), the Contract
Owner has
<PAGE>
30
the right to terminate the Contract. In such event, the Termination Value
of the Contract may be taken in the form of a lump sum cash settlement.
The Termination Value of the Contract is equal to the Contract Value less
any applicable Premium Taxes, the Annual Maintenance Fee, if applicable, and
any applicable contingent deferred sales charges. The Termination Value may
be more or less than the amount of the Premium Payments made to a Contract.
PARTIAL SURRENDERS
The Contract Owner may make a partial surrender of Contract Values at any
time prior to the Annuity Commencement Date so long as the amount
surrendered is at least equal to the minimum amount rules then in effect.
Additionally, if the remaining Contract Value following a surrender is less
than $1,000, HL&A may terminate the Contract and pay the Termination Value.
For Contracts issued in Texas, there is an additional requirement that the
Contract will not be terminated when the remaining Contract Value after a
surrender is less than $1,000 unless there were no Premium Payments made
during the previous two Contract Years.
Once each Contract Year, on a non-cumulative basis, partial surrenders of
Contract Values of up to 10% of the aggregate Premium Payments made to the
Contract may be made without being subject to the contingent deferred sales
charge. Certain plans or programs may have different withdrawal privileges.
HL&A may permit the Contract Owner to preauthorize partial surrenders
subject to certain limitations then in effect.
THERE ARE CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON SECTION 403(B) TAX-SHELTERED ANNUITIES.
AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1988, ALL SECTION 403(B) ANNUITIES HAVE LIMITS ON FULL
AND PARTIAL SURRENDERS. CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE CONTRACT MADE AFTER DECEMBER
31, 1988 AND ANY INCREASES IN CASH VALUE AFTER DECEMBER 31, 1988 MAY NOT BE
DISTRIBUTED UNLESS THE CONTRACT OWNER/EMPLOYEE HAS A) ATTAINED AGE 59 1/2,
B) TERMINATED EMPLOYMENT, C) DIED, D) BECOME DISABLED OR E) EXPERIENCED
FINANCIAL HARDSHIP.
DISTRIBUTIONS DUE TO FINANCIAL HARDSHIP OR SEPARATION FROM SERVICE MAY STILL
BE SUBJECT TO A PENALTY TAX OF 10%.
HL&A WILL NOT ASSUME ANY RESPONSIBILITY IN DETERMINING WHETHER A WITHDRAWAL
IS PERMISSIBLE, WITH OR WITHOUT TAX PENALTY, IN ANY PARTICULAR SITUATION; OR
IN MONITORING WITHDRAWAL REQUESTS REGARDING PRE OR POST JANUARY 1, 1989
ACCOUNT VALUES.
<PAGE>
31
ANY SUCH FULL OR PARTIAL SURRENDER DESCRIBED ABOVE MAY AFFECT THE CONTINUING
TAX-QUALIFIED STATUS OF SOME CONTRACTS OR PLANS AND MAY RESULT IN ADVERSE
TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THE CONTRACT OWNER. THE CONTRACT OWNER, THEREFORE,
SHOULD CONSULT WITH HIS TAX ADVISER BEFORE UNDERTAKING ANY SUCH SURRENDER.
(SEE "FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS" COMMENCING ON PAGE___.)
Payment on any request for a full or partial surrender from the Sub-Accounts
will be made as soon as possible and in any event no later than seven days
after the written request is received by HL&A at its Home Office, Attn:
Individual Annuity Operations, P.O. Box 5085, Hartford, CT 06102-5085. HL&A
may defer payment of any amounts from the Fixed Account for up to six months
from the date of the request for surrender. If HL&A defers payment for more
than 30 days, HL&A will pay interest of at least 4% per annum on the amount
deferred. In requesting a partial withdrawal you should specify the
Sub-Account(s) and/or the Fixed Account from which the partial withdrawal is
to be taken. Otherwise, such withdrawal and any applicable contingent
deferred sales charges will be effected on a pro rata basis according to the
value in the Fixed Account and each Sub-Account under a Contract. Within
this context, the contingent deferred sales charges are taken from the
Premium Payments in the order in which they were received: from the
earliest Premium Payments to the latest Premium Payments (see "How are the
charges under these Contracts made?" page___).
Can payment of a redemption, surrender or death benefit ever be postponed beyond
the seven day period?
Yes. There may be postponement whenever (a) the New York Stock Exchange is
closed, except for holidays or weekends, or trading on the New York Stock
Exchange is restricted as determined by the Securities and Exchange
Commission; (b) the Securities and Exchange Commission permits postponement
and so orders; or (c) the Securities and Exchange Commission determines that
an emergency exists making valuation of the amounts or disposal of
securities not reasonably practicable.
May I surrender once Annuity payments have started?
No. Surrenders are not permitted after Annuity payments commence EXCEPT
that a full surrender is allowed when payments for a designated period
(Option 4 or 5) are selected as the Annuity option.
<PAGE>
32
What are my Annuity benefits?
You select an Annuity Commencement Date and an Annuity option which may be
on a fixed or variable basis, or a combination thereof. The Annuity
Commencement Date will not be deferred beyond the Annuitant's 90th birthday
except for certain states where deferral past age 85 is not permitted. The
Annuity Commencement Date and/or the Annuity option may be changed from time
to time, but any change must be made at least 30 days prior to the date on
which Annuity payments are scheduled to begin. The Contract allows the
Contract Owner to change the Sub-Accounts on which variable payments are
based after payments have commenced once every three (3) months. Any Fixed
Annuity allocation may not be changed.
ANNUITY OPTIONS - The Contract contains the five optional Annuity forms
described below. Options 2, 4 and 5 are available to Qualified Contracts
only if the guaranteed payment period is less than the life expectancy of
the Annuitant at the time the option becomes effective. Such life
expectancy shall be computed on the basis of the mortality table prescribed
by the IRS, or if none is prescribed, the mortality table then in use by the
HL&A. With respect to Non-Qualified Contracts, if you do not elect
otherwise, payments in most states will automatically begin at the
Annuitant's age 90 (with the exception of states that do not allow deferral
past age 85) under Option 2 with 120 monthly payments certain. For
Qualified Contracts and Contracts issued in Texas, if you do not elect
otherwise, payments will begin automatically at the Annuitant's age 90 under
Option 1 to provide a life Annuity.
Under any of the Annuity options excluding Options 4 and 5, no surrenders
are permitted after Annuity payments commence. Only full surrenders are
allowed out of Option 4 and any such surrender will be subject to contingent
deferred sales charges, if applicable. Full or partial withdrawals may be
made from Option 5 at any time and contingent deferred sales charges will
not be applied.
OPTION 1: LIFE ANNUITY - A life Annuity is an Annuity payable during the
lifetime of the Annuitant and terminating with the last payment preceding
the death of the Annuitant. This option offers the largest payment amount
of any of the life Annuity options since there is no guarantee of a minimum
number of payments nor a provision for a death benefit payable to a
Beneficiary.
It would be possible under this option for an Annuitant to receive only one
Annuity payment if he died prior to the due date of the second Annuity
payment, two if he died before the due date of the third Annuity payment,
etc.
OPTION 2: LIFE ANNUITY WITH 120, 180 OR 240 MONTHLY PAYMENTS CERTAIN - This
Annuity option is an Annuity payable monthly during the lifetime of an
Annuitant with the provision
<PAGE>
33
that payments will be made for a minimum of 120, 180 or 240 months, as
elected. If, at the death of the Annuitant, payments have been made for
less than the minimum elected number of months, then the present value as of
the date of the Annuitant's death, of any remaining guaranteed payments will
be paid in one sum to the Beneficiary or Beneficiaries designated unless
other provisions have been made and approved by HL&A.
OPTION 3: JOINT AND LAST SURVIVOR ANNUITY - An Annuity payable monthly
during the joint lifetime of the Annuitant and a designated second person,
and thereafter during the remaining lifetime of the survivor, ceasing with
the last payment prior to the death of the survivor. Based on the options
currently offered by HL&A, the Annuitant may elect that the payment to the
survivor be less than the payment made during the joint lifetime of the
Annuitant and a designated second person.
It would be possible under this option for an Annuitant and designated
second person to receive only one payment in the event of the common or
simultaneous death of the parties prior to the due date for the second
payment and so on.
OPTION 4: PAYMENTS FOR A DESIGNATED PERIOD - An amount payable monthly for
the number of years selected which may be from 5 to 30 years. Under this
option, you may, at any time, surrender the Contract and receive, within
seven days, the Termination Value of the Contract as determined by HL&A.
In the event of the Annuitant's death prior to the end of the designated
period, the present value as of the date of the Annuitant's death, of any
remaining guaranteed payments will be paid in one sum to the Beneficiary or
Beneficiaries designated unless other provisions have been made and
approved by HL&A.
Option 4 is an option that does not involve life contingencies and thus no
mortality guarantee. Charges made for the mortality undertaking under the
Contracts thus provide no real benefit to a Contract Owner.
OPTION 5: DEATH BENEFIT REMAINING WITH HL&A - Proceeds from the Death
Benefit may be left with HL&A for a period not to exceed five years from the
date of the Contract Owner's death prior to the Annuity Commencement Date.
These proceeds will remain in the Sub-Account(s) to which they were
allocated at the time of death unless the Beneficiary elects to reallocate
them. Full or partial withdrawals may be made at any time. In the event of
withdrawals, the remaining value will equal the Contract Value of the
proceeds left with HL&A, minus any withdrawals.
HL&A may offer other annuity options from time to time.
<PAGE>

How are Annuity payments determined?
The value of the Annuity Unit for each Sub-Account in the Separate Account
for any day is determined by multiplying the value for the preceding day by
the product of (1) the net investment factor (see "How is the Accumulation
Unit value determined?" commencing on page___) for the day for which the
Annuity Unit value is being calculated, and (2) a factor to neutralize the
assumed investment rate of 4.00% per annum discussed below.
When Annuity payments are to commence, the value of the Contract is
determined as the sum of the value of the Fixed Account no earlier than the
close of business on the fifth Valuation Day preceding the date the first
Annuity payment is due plus the product of the value of the Accumulation
Unit of each Sub-Account on that same day, and the number of Accumulation
Units credited to each Sub-Account as of the date the Annuity is to
commence.
The Contract contains tables indicating the minimum dollar amount of the
first monthly payment under the optional forms of Annuity for each $1,000 of
value of a Sub-Account under a Contract. The first monthly payment varies
according to the form and type of Annuity selected. The Contract contains
Annuity tables derived from the 1983a Individual Annuity Mortality Table
with ages set back one year and with an assumed investment rate ("A.I.R.")
of 4% per annum. The total first monthly Variable Annuity payment is
determined by multiplying the value (expressed in thousands of dollars) of a
Sub-Account (less any applicable Premium Taxes) by the amount of the first
monthly payment per $1,000 of value obtained from the tables in the
Contracts.
Fixed Annuity payments are determined at annuitization by multiplying the
values allocated to the Fixed Account (less applicable Premium Taxes) by a
rate to be determined by HL&A which is no less than the rate specified in
the Annuity tables in the Contract. The Annuity payment will remain level
for the duration of the Annuity.
The amount of the first monthly Variable Annuity payment, determined as
described above, is divided by the value of an Annuity Unit for the
appropriate Sub-Account no earlier than the close of business on the fifth
Valuation Day preceding the day on which the payment is due in order to
determine the number of Annuity Units represented by the first payment.
This number of Annuity Units remains fixed during the Annuity payment
period, and in each subsequent month the dollar amount of the Variable
Annuity payment is determined by multiplying this fixed number of Annuity
Units by the then current Annuity Unit value.
LEVEL VARIABLE ANNUITY PAYMENTS WOULD BE PRODUCED IF THE INVESTMENT RATE
REMAINED CONSTANT AND EQUAL TO THE A.I.R. IN
<PAGE>
35
FACT, PAYMENTS WILL VARY UP OR DOWN AS THE INVESTMENT RATE VARIES UP OR DOWN
FROM THE A.I.R.
The Annuity payments will be made on the fifteenth day of each month
following selection. The Annuity Unit value used in calculating the amount
of the Variable Annuity payments will be based on an Annuity Unit value
determined as of the close of business on a day no earlier than the fifth
Valuation Day preceding the date of the Annuity payment.
CHARGES UNDER THE CONTRACTS
How are the sales charges under the Contracts made?
There is no deduction for sales expenses from Premium Payments when made.
However, a contingent deferred sales charge may be assessed against Contract
Values when they are surrendered.
The length of time from receipt of a Premium Payment to the time of
surrender determines the contingent deferred sales charge. For this
purpose, Premium Payments will be deemed to be surrendered in the order in
which they are received and all surrenders will be first from Premium
Payments and then from other Contract Values. The charge is a percentage of
the amount withdrawn (not to exceed the aggregate amount of the Premium
Payments made) and equals:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Charge Length Of Time From Premiun Payment
------ -----------------------------------
(Number of Years)
<S> <C>
7% 1
6% 2
5% 3
4% 4
3% 5
2% 6
1% 7
0% 8 or more
</TABLE>
No contingent deferred sales charge will be assessed in the event of death
of the Annuitant or Contract Owner, or if Contract Values are applied to an
Annuity option provided for under the Contract (except that a surrender out
of Option 4 will be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge if
applicable) or upon the exercise of the withdrawal privilege. (See "Is
there ever a time when the sales charges do not apply?" commencing on page
___.)
<PAGE>
36
In the case of a redemption in which you request a certain dollar amount be
withdrawn, the sales charge is deducted from the amount withdrawn and the
balance is paid to you. Example: You request a total withdrawal of $1,000
and the applicable sales load is 5%. Your Sub-Account(s) and/or the Fixed
Account will be reduced by $1,000 and you will receive $950 (i.e., the
$1,000 total withdrawal less the 5% sales charge). This is the method
applicable on a full surrender of your Contract. In the case of a partial
redemption in which you request to receive a specified amount, the sales
charge will be calculated on the total amount that must be withdrawn from
your Sub-Account(s) and/or the Fixed Account in order to provide you with
the amount requested. Example: You request to receive $1,000 and the
applicable sales charge is 5%. Your Sub-Account(s) and/or the Fixed Account
will be reduced by $1,052.63 (i.e., a total withdrawal of $1,052.63 which
results in a $52.63 sales charge ($1,052.63 x 5%) and a net amount paid to
you of $1,000 as requested).
Is there ever a time when the sales charges do not apply?
Yes. During any Contract Year, on a non-cumulative basis, a Contract Owner
may make a partial surrender of Contract Values of up to 10% of the
aggregate Premium Payments made to the Contract (as determined on the date
of the requested withdrawal) without the application of the contingent
deferred sales charge described above. Certain plans or programs may have
different withdrawal privileges. Any such withdrawal will be deemed to be
from Contract Values other than Premium Payments. From time to time, HL&A
may permit the Contract Owner to preauthorize partial surrenders subject to
certain limitations then in effect. Additional surrenders or any surrender
of the Contract Values in excess of such amount in any Contract Year during
the period when contingent deferred sales charges are applicable will be
subject to the appropriate charge as set forth above.
No contingent deferred sales charges otherwise applicable will be assessed
in the event of death of the Annuitant, death of the Contract Owner or if
payments are made under an Annuity option provided for under the Contract,
except that in the case of a surrender out of Annuity Option 4, contingent
deferred sales charges will be assessed, if applicable.
HL&A may offer to certain employer sponsored savings plans, in its
discretion, reduced fees and charges including, but not limited to, the
contingent deferred sales charges, the mortality and expense risk charge and
the maintenance fees for certain sales under circumstances which may result
in savings of certain costs and expenses. Reductions in these fees and
charges will not be unfairly discriminatory against any Contract Owner.
What do the sales charges cover?
The contingent deferred sales charges are used to cover expenses relating to
the sale and distribution of the Contracts, including commissions paid to
any distribution organization
<PAGE>
37
and its sales personnel, the cost of preparing sales literature and other
promotional activities. To the extent that these charges do not cover such
distribution expenses they will be borne by HL&A from its general assets,
including surplus. The surplus might include profits resulting from unused
mortality and expense risk charges.
What is the mortality and expense risk charge?
Although Variable Annuity payments made under the Contracts will vary in
accordance with the investment performance of the underlying Fund shares
held in the Sub-Account(s), the payments will not be affected by (a) HL&A's
actual mortality experience among Annuitants before or after the Annuity
Commencement Date or (b) HL&A's actual expenses, if greater than the
deductions provided for in the Contracts because of the expense and
mortality undertakings by HL&A.
For assuming these risks under the Contracts, HL&A will make a daily charge
at the rate of 1.25% per annum against all Contract Values held in the
Sub-Separate Accounts during the life of the Contract (estimated at .90% for
mortality and .35% for expense).
The mortality undertakings provided by HL&A under the Contracts, assuming
the selection of one of the forms of life Annuities, is to make monthly
Annuity payments (determined in accordance with the 1983a Individual Annuity
Mortality Table and other provisions contained in the Contract) to
Annuitants regardless of how long an Annuitant may live, and regardless of
how long all Annuitants as a group may live. HL&A also assumes the
liability for payment of a minimum death benefit under the Contract.
The mortality undertakings are based on HL&A's determination of expected
mortality rates among all Annuitants. If actual experience among Annuitants
during the Annuity payment period deviates from HL&A's actuarial
determination of expected mortality rates among Annuitants because, as a
group, their longevity is longer than anticipated, HL&A must provide amounts
from its general funds to fulfill its Contract obligations. In that event,
a loss will fall on HL&A. Also, in the event of the death of an Annuitant
or Contract Owner prior to age 85 or before the commencement of Annuity
payments, whichever is earlier, HL&A can, in periods of declining value,
experience a loss resulting from the assumption of the mortality risk
relative to the minimum death benefit.
In providing an expense undertaking, HL&A assumes the risk that the
contingent deferred sales charges and the Annual Maintenance Fee for
maintaining the Contracts prior to the Annuity Commencement Date may be
insufficient to cover the actual cost of providing such items.
<PAGE>
38
Are there any administrative charges?
Each year, on each Contract Anniversary on or before the Annuity
Commencement Date, HL&A will deduct an Annual Maintenance Fee from Contract
Values to reimburse it for expenses relating to the maintenance of the
Contract, the Fixed Account, and the Sub-Account(s) thereunder. If during a
Contract Year the Contract is surrendered for its full value, HL&A will
deduct the Annual Maintenance Fee at the time of such surrender. The fee is
a flat fee which will be due in the full amount regardless of the time of
the Contract Year that Contract Values are surrendered. The Annual
Maintenance Fee is $25.00 per Contract Year. The deduction will be made pro
rata according to the value in each Sub-Account and the Fixed Account under
a Contract.
How much are the deductions for Premium Taxes?
A deduction is also made for Premium Tax, if applicable, by a state or other
governmental entity. Certain states impose a Premium Tax, currently ranging
up to 3.5%. Some states assess the tax at the time purchase payments are
made; others assess the tax at the time of annuitization. HL&A will pay
Premium Taxes at the time imposed under applicable law. At its sole
discretion, HL&A may deduct Premium Taxes at the time HL&A pays such taxes
to the applicable taxing authorities, at the time the Contract is
surrendered, or at the time the Contract annuitizes.

life insurance Contracts issued by HL&A.
<PAGE>
41
Although HL&A and the Funds do not currently foresee any such disadvantages
either to variable annuity Contract owners or to variable life insurance
Policy owners, the Funds' Board of Directors intends to monitor events in
order to identify any material conflicts between such Contract Owners and
Policyowners and to determine what action, if any, should be taken in
response thereto. If the Board of Directors of the Funds were to conclude
that separate funds should be established for variable life and variable
annuity separate accounts, the variable annuity Contract Owners would not
bear any expenses attendant to the establishment of such separate funds.

manager or adviser to each of the Funds. In addition, Wellington Management
Company ("Wellington") has served as sub-investment adviser to certain of
the Funds since August 1984.
HIMCO serves as investment manager for Hartford Advisers, Hartford Capital
Appreciation, Hartford Dividend and Growth, Hartford International
Advisers, Hartford International Opportunities, and Hartford Stock Funds,

Additional Information which may be ordered from HL&A.
Does HL&A have any interest in the Funds?
No.
FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS
What are some of the Federal tax consequences which affect these Contracts?
<PAGE>
42
A. GENERAL
SINCE THE TAX LAW IS COMPLEX AND SINCE TAX CONSEQUENCES WILL VARY ACCORDING
TO THE ACTUAL STATUS OF THE CONTRACT OWNER INVOLVED AND THE TYPE OF PLAN
UNDER WHICH THE CONTRACT IS PURCHASED, LEGAL AND TAX ADVICE MAY BE NEEDED BY
A PERSON, TRUSTEE OR OTHER ENTITY CONTEMPLATING THE PURCHASE OF A CONTRACT
DESCRIBED HEREIN.
It should be understood that any detailed description of the federal income
tax consequences regarding the purchase of these Contracts cannot be made in
this Prospectus and that special tax rules may be applicable with respect to
certain purchase situations not discussed herein. In addition, no attempt
is made here to consider any applicable state or other tax laws. For
detailed information, a qualified tax adviser should always be consulted.
The discussion here and in Appendix III, commencing on page___, is based on
HL&A's understanding of current federal income tax laws as they are
currently interpreted.
B. TAXATION OF HL&A AND THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
The Separate Account is taxed as part of HL&A which is taxed as a life
insurance company in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code").
Accordingly, the Separate Account will not be taxed as a "regulated
investment company" under subchapter M of Chapter 1 of the Code. Investment
income and any realized capital gains on the assets of the Separate Account
are reinvested and are taken into account in determining the value of the
Accumulation and Annuity Units (See "Value of Accumulation Units" commencing
on page 11). As a result, such investment income and realized capital gains
are automatically applied to increase reserves under the Contract.
No taxes are due on interest, dividends and short-term or long-term capital
gains earned by the Separate Account with respect to Qualified or Non-
Qualified Contracts.
C. TAXATION OF ANNUITIES -- GENERAL PROVISIONS AFFECTING PURCHASERS OTHER THAN
QUALIFIED PLANS
Section 72 of the Internal Revenue Code governs the taxation of annuities in
general.
1. NON-NATURAL PERSONS, CORPORATIONS, ETC. Section 72 contains provisions
for Contract Owners which are non-natural persons. Non-natural persons
include corporations, trusts, and partnerships. The annual net increase
in the value of the Contract is currently includable in the gross income
of a non-natural person unless the non-natural person holds the Contract
as an agent for a natural person. There is an exception from current
inclusion for certain annuities held by structured settlement companies,
certain annuities held by an
<PAGE>
43
employer with respect to a terminated Qualified Plan and certain
immediate annuities. A non-natural person which is a tax-exempt entity
for Federal tax purposes will not be subject to income tax as a result
of this provision.
If the Contract Owner is not an individual, the primary Annuitant shall
be treated as the Contract Owner for purposes of making distributions
which are required to be made upon the death of the Contract Owner. If
there is a change in the primary Annuitant, such change shall be treated
as the death of the Contract Owner.
2. OTHER CONTRACT OWNERS (NATURAL PERSONS). A Contract Owner is not taxed
on increases in the value of the Contract until an amount is received or
deemed received, e.g., in the form of a lump sum payment (full or
partial value of a Contract) or as Annuity payments under the settlement
option elected.
The provisions of Section 72 of the Code concerning distributions are
summarized briefly below. Also summarized are special rules affecting
distributions from Contracts obtained in a tax-free exchange for other
annuity contracts or life insurance contracts which were purchased prior
to August 14, 1982.
a. DISTRIBUTIONS PRIOR TO THE ANNUITY COMMENCEMENT DATE.
i. Total premium payments less prior withdrawals which were not
includable in gross income equal the "investment in the
contract" under Section 72 of the Code.
ii. When the value of the Contract (ignoring any surrender charges)
exceeds the "investment in the contract," any amount
surrendered which is less than or equal to the difference
between such value of the Contract and the "investment in the
contract" will be included in gross income.
iii. When such value of the Contract is less than or equal to the
"investment in the contract," any amount surrendered which is
less than or equal to the "investment in the contract" shall be
treated as a return of "investment in the contract" and will
not be included in gross income.
iv. The receipt of any amount as a loan under the Contract or the
assignment or pledge of any portion of the value of the
Contract shall be treated as an amount surrendered which will
be covered by the provisions in subparagraph ii. or iii. above.
v. In general, the transfer of the Contract, without full and
adequate consideration, will be treated as an amount
surrendered which will be covered by the provisions
<PAGE>
44
in subparagraph ii. or iii. above. This transfer rule does not
apply, however, to certain transfers of property between
spouses or incident to divorce.
b. DISTRIBUTIONS AFTER ANNUITY COMMENCEMENT DATE. Annuity payments
made after the Annuity Commencement Date are includable in gross
income to the extent the payments exceed the amount determined by
the application of the ratio of the "investment in the contract" to
the total amount of the payments to be made after the Annuity
Commencement Date (the "exclusion ratio").
i. When the total of amounts excluded from income by application
of the exclusion ratio is equal to the investment in the
contract as of the Annuity Commencement Date, any additional
payments (including surrenders) will be entirely includable in
gross income.
ii. If the annuity payments cease by reason of the death of the
Annuitant and, as of the date of death, the amount of annuity
payments excluded from gross income by the exclusion ratio does
not exceed the investment in the contract as of the Annuity
Commencement Date, then the remaining portion of unrecovered
investment shall be allowed as a deduction for the last taxable
year of the Annuitant.
iii. Certain distributions, such as surrenders made after the
Annuity Commencement Date, are not treated as annuity payments,
and shall be included in gross income.
c. AGGREGATION OF TWO OR MORE ANNUITY CONTRACTS.
Contracts issued after October 21, 1988 by the same insurer (or
affiliated insurer) to the same Contract Owner within the same
calendar year (other than certain contracts held in connection with
a tax-qualified retirement arrangement) will be treated as one
annuity Contract for the purpose of determining the taxation of
distributions prior to the Annuity Commencement Date. An annuity
contract received in a tax-free exchange for another annuity
contract or life insurance contract may be treated as a new Contract
for this purpose. HL&A believes that for any annuity subject to
such aggregation, the values under the Contracts and the investment
in the contracts will be added together to determine the taxation of
amounts received or deemed received prior to the Annuity
Commencement Date. Withdrawals will first be treated as withdrawals
of income until all of the income from all such Contracts is
withdrawn. As of the date of this Prospectus, there are no
regulations interpreting this provision.
<PAGE>
45
d. PENALTY -- APPLICABLE TO CERTAIN WITHDRAWALS AND ANNUITY PAYMENTS.
i. If any amount is received or deemed received on the Contract
(before or after the Annuity Commencement Date), the Code
applies a penalty tax equal to ten percent of the portion of
the amount includable in gross income, unless an exception
applies.
ii. The penalty will not apply to the following distributions
(exceptions vary based upon the precise plan involved):
1. Distributions made on or after the date the recipient has
attained the age of 59 1/2.
2. Distributions made on or after the death of the Contract
Holder or where the Contract Holder is not an individual,
the death of the primary Annuitant.
3. Distributions attributable to a recipient's becoming
disabled.
4. A distribution that is part of a scheduled series of
substantially equal periodic payments for the life (or life
expectancy) of the recipient (or the joint lives or life
expectancies of the recipient and the recipient's
Beneficiary).
5. Distributions of amounts which are allocable to "investments
in the contract" made prior to August 14, 1982.
e. SPECIAL PROVISIONS AFFECTING CONTRACTS OBTAINED THROUGH A TAX-FREE
EXCHANGE OF OTHER ANNUITY OR LIFE INSURANCE CONTRACTS PURCHASED
PRIOR TO AUGUST 14, 1982.
If the Contract was obtained by a tax-free exchange of a life
insurance or annuity Contract purchased prior to August 14, 1982,
then any amount surrendered prior to the Annuity Commencement Date
which does not exceed the portion of the "investment in the
contract" (generally premiums paid into the prior Contract, less
amounts deemed received) prior to August 14, 1982, shall not be
included in gross income. In all other respects, the general
provisions apply to distributions from such Contracts.
f. REQUIRED DISTRIBUTIONS IN THE EVENT OF CONTRACT OWNER'S DEATH.
i. If any Contract Owner dies before the Annuity Commencement
Date, the entire interest must be distributed within five years
of the date of death; however, a portion or all of such
interest may be payable to a designated Beneficiary over the
life of such Beneficiary or for a period not extending beyond
the life expectancy of such Beneficiary with payments starting
within one year of the date of death.
<PAGE>
46
ii. If any Contract Owner or Annuitant dies on or after the Annuity
Commencement Date and before the entire interest in the
Contract has been distributed, any remaining portion of such
interest must be distributed at least as rapidly as under the
method of distribution in effect at the time of death.
iii. If a spouse is designated as a Beneficiary at the time of the
Contract Owner's death and there is a surviving Annuitant or
Contingent Annuitant, then such spouse will be treated as the
Contract Owner under subparagraph i. and ii. above.
iv. If the Contract Owner is not an individual, the primary
Annuitant shall be treated as the Contract Owner under
subparagraphs i. and ii. above. If there is a change in the
primary Annuitant, such change shall be treated as the death of
the Contract Owner.
3. DIVERSIFICATION REQUIREMENTS.
Section 817 of the Code provides that a variable annuity contract (other
than certain contracts held in connection with a tax-qualified
retirement arrangement) will not be treated as an annuity contract for
any period during which the investments made by the separate account or
underlying fund are not adequately diversified in accordance with
regulations prescribed by the Treasury. If a Contract is not treated as
an annuity contract, the Contract Owner will be subject to income tax on
the annual increases in cash value. The Treasury has issued
diversification regulations which, among other things, require that no
more than 55% of the assets of a mutual fund (such as the HL&A mutual
funds) underlying a variable annuity contract, be invested in any one
investment. In determining whether the diversification standards are
met, each United States Government Agency or instrumentality shall be
treated as a separate issuer.
D. FEDERAL INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING
The portion of a distribution which is taxable income to the recipient will be
subject to Federal income tax withholding, pursuant to Section 3405 of the
Internal Revenue Code. The application of this provision is summarized below:
1. Non-Periodic Distributions
The portion of a non-periodic distribution which constitutes taxable
income will be subject to federal income tax withholding unless the
recipient elects not to have taxes withheld. If an election not to have
taxes withheld is not provided, 10% of the taxable distribution will be
withheld as federal income tax. Election forms will be provided at the
time distributions are requested. If the necessary election forms are
not submitted to HL&A, HL&A will automatically withhold 10% of the
taxable distribution.
<PAGE>
47
2. Periodic Distributions (distributions payable over a period greater than
one year)
The portion of a periodic distribution which constitutes taxable income
will be subject to federal income tax withholding as if the recipient
were married claiming three exemptions. A recipient may elect not to
have income taxes withheld or have income taxes withheld at a different
rate by providing a completed election form. Election forms will be
provided at the time distributions are requested.
E. GENERAL PROVISIONS AFFECTING TAX-QUALIFIED PLANS
The Contract may be used for a number of qualified plans. If the Contract is
being purchased with respect to some form of Qualified Plan, please refer to
Appendix I commencing on page___ for information relative to the types of plans
for which it may be used and the general explanation of the tax features of such
plans.
MISCELLANEOUS
What are my voting rights?
HL&A is the legal owner of all Fund shares held in the Separate Account. As
the owner, HL&A has the right to vote at the Funds' shareholder meetings.
However, to the extent required by federal securities laws or regulations,
HL&A will:
1. Vote all Fund shares attributable to a Contract according to
instructions received from Contract Owner, and
2. Vote shares attributable to a Contract for which no voting instructions
are received in the same proportion as shares for which instructions are
received.
If any federal securities laws or regulations, or their present
interpretation change to permit HL&A to vote Fund shares in its own right,
HL&A may elect to do so.
HL&A will notify you of any Fund shareholders' meeting if the shares held
for your account may be voted at such meetings. HL&A will also send proxy
materials and a form of instruction by means of which you can instruct HL&A
with respect to the voting of the Fund shares held for your account.
In connection with the voting of Fund shares held by it, HL&A will arrange
for the handling and tallying of proxies received from Contract Owners.
HL&A as such, shall have no right, except as hereinafter provided, to vote
any Fund shares held by it hereunder which may be registered in its name or
the names of its nominees. HL&A will, however, vote the Fund shares held by
it in accordance with the instructions received from the Contract Owners for
whose accounts the Fund shares are held. If a Contract Owner desires to
attend any meeting at which shares held for the Contract Owner's benefit may
be voted, the Contract Owner may
<PAGE>
48
request HL&A to furnish a proxy or otherwise arrange for the exercise of
voting rights with respect to the Fund shares held for such Contract Owner's
account. HL&A will vote shares for which no instructions have been given
and shares which are not attributable to Contract Owners (i.e. shares owned
by HL&A) in the same proportion as it votes shares of that Fund for which it
has received instructions. During the Annuity period under a Contract the
number of votes will decrease as the assets held to fund Annuity benefits
decrease.
Will other Contracts be participating in the Separate Account?
In addition to the Contracts described in this Prospectus, it is
contemplated that other forms of group or individual Variable Annuities may
be sold providing benefits which vary in accordance with the investment
experience of the Separate Account.
How are the Contracts sold?
Hartford Equity Sales Company, Inc. ("HESCO") currently serves as Principal
Underwriter for the securities issued with respect to the Separate Account.
Hartford Securities Distribution Company, Inc. ("HSD") will replace HESCO as
principal underwriter upon approval by the Commission, the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD") and applicable state
regulatory authorities.
Both HESCO and HSD are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Hartford Life Insurance
Company. The principal business address of HESCO and HSD is the same as
HL&A.
The securities will be sold by salespersons of HESCO, and subsequently HSD,
who represent HL&A as insurance and Variable Annuity agents and who are
registered representatives or Broker-Dealers who have entered into
distribution agreements with HESCO, and subsequently HSD.
HESCO is registered with the Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 as a Broker-Dealer and is a member of the NASD. HSD will be registered
with the Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a Broker-
Dealer and will become a member of the NASD.
Commissions will be paid by HL&A and will not be more than 6% of Premium
Payments.
From time to time, HL&A may pay or permit other promotional incentives, in
cash or credit or other compensation.
The securities may also be sold directly to employees of HL&A and Hartford
Fire Insurance Company, the ultimate parent of HL&A, without compensation to
HESCO or HSD salespersons. The securities will be credited with an
additional 3% of the employee's premium payment by HL&A. This additional
percentage of premium payment in no way affects present or future charges,
rights, benefits or current values of other Contract Owners.

arrangement.
Are there any material legal proceedings affecting the Separate Account?

APPENDIX I
INFORMATION REGARDING TAX-QUALIFIED PLANS
THE TAX REFORM ACT OF 1986 AND THE TECHNICAL AND MISCELLANEOUS REVENUE ACT OF
1988 HAVE MADE SUBSTANTIAL CHANGES TO QUALIFIED PLANS. YOU SHOULD CONSULT YOUR
TAX ADVISER TO FULLY ADDRESS ALL CHANGES OCCURRING AS A RESULT OF THE TAX REFORM
ACT AND THE TECHNICAL AND MISCELLANEOUS REVENUE ACT OF 1988 AND THEIR EFFECT ON
QUALIFIED PLANS.
A. Contributions
1. Pension, Profit-Sharing and Simplified Employee Pension Plans
Contributions to pension or profit-sharing plans (described in Section
401(a) and 401(k), if applicable, and exempt from taxation under Section
501(a) of the Code), and Simplified Employee Pension Plans (described in
Section 408(k)), which do not exceed certain limitations prescribed in the
Code are fully tax deductible to the employer. Such contributions are not
currently taxable to the covered employees, and increases in the value of
Contracts purchased with such contributions are not subject to taxation
until received by the covered employees or their Beneficiaries in the form
of Annuity payments or other distributions.
2. Tax-Deferred Annuity Plans for Public School Teachers and Employers and
Employees of Certain Tax-Exempt Organizations
Contributions to tax-deferred annuity plans (described in Section 403(a) and
403(b) of the Code) by employers are not includable within the employee's
income to the extent those contributions do not exceed the lesser of $9,500
or the exclusion allowance. Generally, the exclusion allowance is equal to
20% of the employee's includable compensation for his most recent full year
of employment multiplied by the number of years of his service, less the
aggregate amount contributed by the employer for Annuity Contracts which
were not included within the gross income of the employee for any prior
taxable year. There are special provisions which may allow an employee of
an educational institution, a hospital or a home health service agency to
elect an overall limitation different from the limitation described above.
<PAGE>
51
3. Deferred Compensation Plans for Tax-Exempt Organizations and State and Local
Governments
Employees may contribute on a before tax basis to the Deferred Compensation
Plan of their employer in accordance with the employer's Plan and Section
457 of the Code. Section 457 places limitations on contributions to
Deferred Compensation Plans maintained by a State ("State" means a State, a
political sub-division of a State, and an agency or instrumentality of a
State or political sub-division of a State) or other tax-exempt
organization. Generally, the limitation is 33 1/3% of includable
compensation (25% of gross compensation) or $7,500, whichever is less. The
plan may also provide for additional contributions during the three taxable
years ending before normal retirement age of a Participant for a total of up
to $15,000 per year for such three years.
An employee electing to participate in a plan should understand that his
rights and benefits are governed strictly by the terms of the plan, that he
is in fact a general creditor of the employer under the terms of the plan,
that the employer is legal owner of any Contract issued with respect to the
plan and that the employer as owner of the Contract(s) retains all voting
and redemption rights which may accrue to the Contract(s) issued with
respect to the plan. The participating employee should look to the terms of
his plan for any charges in regard to participating therein other than those
disclosed in this Prospectus.
Certain distributions are required to be made upon the death of a
Participant. These requirements are generally described in Section C.2.f.
of "Federal Tax Considerations" on page___.
4. Individual Retirement Annuities ("IRA's")
Individuals may contribute and deduct the lesser of $2,000 or 100 percent of
their compensation to an IRA. In the case of a spousal IRA, the maximum
deduction is the lesser of $2,250 or 100 percent of compensation. The
deduction for contributions is phased out between $40,000 and $50,000 of
adjusted gross income (AGI) for a married individual (and between $25,000
and $35,000 for single individuals) if either the individual or his or her
spouse is an active Participant in any Section 401(a), 403(a), 403(b) or
408(k) plan regardless of whether the individual's interest is vested.
To the extent deductible contributions are not allowed, individuals may make
designated non-deductible contributions to an IRA, subject to the above
limits.
B. Distributions
1. Pension and Profit-Sharing Plans, Tax-sheltered annuities, Individual
Retirement Annuities.
Annuity payments made under the Contracts are taxable under Section 72 of
the Code as
<PAGE>
52
ordinary income, in the year of receipt, to the extent that they exceed the
"excludable amount." The investment in the Contract is the aggregate amount
of the contributions made by or on behalf of an employee which were included
as a part of his taxable income and not deducted. Thus, annual premiums
deducted for an IRA are not included in the investment in the contract. The
employee's investment in the Contract is divided by the expected number of
payments to be made under the Contract. The amount so computed constitutes
the "excludable amount," which is the amount of each annuity payment
considered a return of investment in each year and, therefore, not taxable.
Once the employee's investment in the Contract is recouped, the full amount
of each payment will be fully taxable. If the employee dies prior to
recouping his or her investment in the Contract, a deduction is allowed for
the last taxable year. The rules for determining the excludable amount are
contained in Section 72 of the Code.
Generally, distributions or withdrawals prior to age 59 1/2 may be subject
to an additional income tax of 10% of the amount includable in income. This
additional tax does not apply to distributions made after the employee's
death, on account of disability and distributions in the form of a life
annuity and, except in the case of an IRA, certain distributions after
separation from service at or after age 55, and certain distributions for
eligible medical expenses. A life annuity is defined as a scheduled series
of substantially equal periodic payments for the life or life expectancy of
the Participant (or the joint lives or life expectancies of the Participant
and Beneficiary). The taxation of withdrawals and other distributions
varies depending on the type of distribution and the type of plan from which
the distribution is made. With respect to tax-deferred annuity Contracts
under Section 403(b), contributions to the Contract made after December 31,
1988 and any increases in cash value after that date may not be distributed
prior to attaining age 59 1/2, separation from service, death or disability.
Contributions (but not earnings) made after December 31, 1988 may also be
distributed by reason of financial hardship.
Generally, in order to avoid a penalty tax, annuity payments, periodic
payments or annual distributions MUST commence by April 1 of the calendar
year following the year in which the Participant attains age 70 1/2. The
entire interest of the Participant must be distributed beginning no later
than this required beginning date over a period which may not extend beyond
a maximum of the lives or life expectancies of the Participant and a
designated Beneficiary. Each annual distribution must equal or exceed a
"minimum distribution amount" which is determined by dividing the account
balance by the applicable life expectancy. With respect to a Section 403(b)
plan, this account balance is based upon earnings and contributions after
December 31, 1986. In addition, minimum distribution incidental benefit
rules may require a larger annual distribution based upon dividing the
entire account balance as of the close of business on the last day of the
previous calendar year by a factor promulgated by the Internal Revenue
Service which ranges from 26.2 (at age 70) to 1.8 (at age 115).
Special rules apply to require that distributions be made to Beneficiaries
after the death of the
<PAGE>
53
Participant. A penalty tax of up to 50% of the amount which should be
distributed may be imposed by the Internal Revenue Service for failure to
make such distribution.
2. Deferred Compensation Plans for Tax-Exempt Organizations and State and Local
Governments
Generally, in order to avoid a penalty tax, annuity payments, periodic
payments or annual distributions must commence by April 1 of the calendar
year following the year in which the Participant attains age 70 1/2.
Minimum distributions under a Section 457 Deferred Compensation Plan may be
further deferred if the Participant remains employed. The entire interest
of the Participant must be distributed beginning no later than this required
beginning date over a period which may not extend beyond a maximum of the
life expectancy of the Participant and a designated Beneficiary. Each
annual distribution must equal or exceed a "minimum distribution amount"
which is determined by dividing the account balance by the applicable life
expectancy. This account balance is generally based upon the account value
as of the close of business on the last day of the previous calendar year.
With respect to a Section 403(b) plan, this account balance is based upon
earnings and contributions after December 31, 1986. In addition, minimum
distribution incidental benefit rules may require a larger annual
distribution based upon dividing the account balance by a factor promulgated
by the Internal Revenue Service which ranges from 26.2 (at age 70) to 1.8
(at age 115). Special rules apply to require that distributions be made to
Beneficiaries after the death of the Participant. A penalty tax of up to
50% of the amount which should be distributed may be imposed by the Internal
Revenue Service for failure to make a distribution.
Upon receipt of any monies pursuant to the terms of a Deferred Compensation
Plan for a tax-exempt organization, state or local government under Section
457 of the Code, such monies are taxable to such employee as ordinary income
in the year in which received.
C. Federal Income Tax Withholding
The portion of a distribution which is taxable income to the recipient will
be subject to federal income tax withholding, pursuant to Section 3405 of
the Internal Revenue Code. The application of this provision is summarized
below:
1. Eligible Rollover Distributions
a. The Unemployment Compensation Amendments Act of 1992 requires that
federal income taxes be withheld from certain distributions from
tax-qualified retirement plans and from tax-sheltered annuities under
Section 403(b). These provisions DO NOT APPLY to distributions from
individual retirement annuities under section 408(b) or from deferred
compensation programs under section 457.
b. If any portion of a distribution is an "eligible rollover distribution",
the law requires that
<PAGE>
54
20% of that amount be withheld. This amount is sent to the IRS as
withheld income taxes. The following types of payments DO NOT
constitute an eligible rollover distribution (and, therefore, the
mandatory withholding rules will not apply):
- the non-taxable portion of the distribution;
- distributions which are part of a series of equal (or substantially
equal) payments made at least annually for your lifetime (or your
life expectancy), or your lifetime and your Beneficiary's lifetime
(or life expectancies), or for a period of ten years or more.
- required minimum distributions made pursuant to Section 401(a)(9) of
the IRC.
c. However, these mandatory withholding requirements do not apply in the
event of all or a portion of any eligible rollover distribution is paid
in a "direct rollover". A direct rollover is the direct payment of an
eligible rollover distribution or portion thereof to an individual
retirement arrangement or annuity (IRA) or to another qualified employer
plan. IF A DIRECT ROLLOVER IS ELECTED, NO INCOME TAX WILL BE WITHHELD.
d. If any portion of a distribution is not an eligible rollover
distribution but is taxable, the mandatory withholding rules described
above do not apply. In this case, the voluntary withholding rules
described below apply.
2. Non-Eligible Rollover Distributions
a. Non-Periodic Distributions
The portion of a non-periodic distribution which constitutes taxable
income will be subject to federal income tax withholding unless the
recipient elects not to have taxes withheld. If an election not to have
taxes withheld is not provided, 10% of the taxable distribution will be
withheld as federal income tax. Election forms will be provided at the
time distributions are requested.
b. Periodic Distributions (distributions payable over a period greater than
one year)
The portion of a periodic distribution which constitutes taxable income
will be subject to federal income tax withholding as if the recipient
were married claiming three exemptions. A recipient may elect not to
have income taxes withheld or have income taxes withheld at a different
rate by providing a completed election form. Election forms will be
provided at the time distributions are requested.
D. Any distribution from plans described in A.3 on page___ is subject to the
regular wage withholding rules.

INTRODUCTION
The individual and group tax-deferred variable annuity contracts described in
the Prospectus are designed to provide Annuity benefits to individuals who have
established or wish to establish retirement programs which may or may not
qualify for special federal income tax treatment. The Annuitant under these
contracts may receive Annuity benefits in accordance with the Annuity option
selected and the retirement program, if any, under which the contracts have been
purchased. Annuity payments under a contract will begin on a particular future
date which may be selected at any time under the contract or automatically when
the Annuitant reaches age 90, except in certain states where deferral past age
85 is not permitted. There are several alternative annuity payment options
available under the contract (see "Optional Annuity Forms," commencing on
page ).
The Premium Payments under a contract, less any applicable Premium Taxes, will
be applied to the Separate Account and/or the Fixed Account. Accordingly, the
net Premium Payment under the contract will be applied to purchase interests in
one or more of the Bond Fund, HVA Money Market Fund, Stock Fund, U.S. Government
Money Market Fund (for qualified Contracts issued prior to May 1, 1987),
Advisers Fund, Capital Appreciation Fund, Index Fund, International
Opportunities Fund, Mortgage Securities Fund Sub-Accounts.
Shares of the Funds are purchased by the Separate Account without the imposition
of a sales charge. The value of a contract depends on the value of the shares
of the Fund held by the Separate Account pursuant to that contract. As a
result, the Contract Owner bears the investment risk since market value of the
shares may increase or decrease.
There is no assurance that the value of the Contract Owner's contract at any
time will equal or exceed the Premium Payments made. However, if the Annuitant
or Contract Owner dies before the Annuity Commencement Date, the contracts
provide that a death benefit equal to the value of the contract as of the date
due proof of death is received by Hartford Life & Accident Insurance Companies
shall be payable. This amount is the greater of (a) the Contract Value on the
date of receipt of due proof of death by Hartford Life & Accident Insurance
Companies, or (b) 100% of the total Premium Payments made to such contract,
reduced by any prior surrenders, or (c) the Contract Value on the Specified
Contract Anniversary immediately preceding the date of death, increased by the
dollar amount of any Premium Payments made and reduced by the dollar amount of
any partial terminations since the immediately preceding Specified Contract
Anniversary. (See "Payments of Benefits" commencing on page___ of the
Prospectus.)
DESCRIPTION OF HARTFORD LIFE & ACCIDENT INSURANCE COMPANY
Hartford Life & Accident Insurance Company ("HL&A") was originally incorporated
under the laws of Connecticut on February 14, 1967. It is a stock life
insurance company engaged in the business of writing health and life insurance,
both ordinary and group, in all states of the United States and the District of
Columbia. The offices of HL&A are located in Simsbury, Connecticut;
<PAGE>
-5-
however its mailing address is P.O. Box 5085, Hartford, Connecticut 06102-5085.
HL&A is ultimately 100% owned by Hartford Fire Insurance Company, one of the
largest multiple lines insurance carriers in the United States. Hartford Fire
Insurance Company is a subsidiary of ITT Corporation.
Hartford Life and Accident Insurance Company has an A++ (superior) rating from
A.M. Best and Company, Inc. on the basis of its financial soundness and
operating performance, the highest ratings provided by this service. Hartford
Life and Accident has an AA+ rating from Standard & Poor's and Duff and Phelps
highest rating (AAA) on the basis of its claims paying ability.
These ratings do not apply to the performance of the Separate Account. However,
the contractual obligations under this variable annuity are the general
corporate obligations of HL&A. These ratings do apply to HL&A's ability to meet
its insurance obligations under the contract.
SAFEKEEPING OF ASSETS
The assets of the Separate Account are held by HL&A under a safekeeping
arrangement.
INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
Arthur Andersen LLP, One Financial Plaza Hartford, Connecticut, independent
public accountants, will perform an annual audit of the Separate Account. The
financial statements included in this Statement of Additional Information have
been audited by Arthur Andersen LLP to the extent and for the periods indicated
in their report and are included herein in reliance upon the report of said firm
as experts in accounting and auditing.
DISTRIBUTION OF CONTRACTS
Hartford Equity Sales Company, Inc. ("HESCO") currently serves as Principal
Underwriter for the securities issued with respect to the Separate Account.
Hartford Securities Distribution Company, Inc.("HSD") will replace HESCO as
principal underwriter upon approval by the Commission, the National Association
of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD") and applicable state regulatory
authorities.
Both HESCO and HSD are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Hartford Life Insurance
Company. The principal business address of HESCO and HSD is the same as HL&A.
The securities will be sold by salespersons of HESCO, and subsequently HSD, who
represent HL&A as insurance and Variable Annuity agents and who are registered
representatives or Broker-Dealers who have entered into distribution agreements
with HESCO, and subsequently HSD.
<PAGE>
-6-
HESCO is registered with the Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 as a Broker-Dealer and is a member of the NASD. HSD will be registered
with the Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a Broker-Dealer
and will become a member of the NASD.
ANNUITY PERIOD
A. Annuity Payments
Variable Annuity payments are determined on the basis of (1) a mortality
table set forth in the contracts and the type of Annuity payment option
selected, and (2) the investment performance of the investment medium
selected. Fixed Annuity payments are based on the Annuity tables contained
in the contracts, and will remain level for the duration of the Annuity.
The amount of the Annuity payments will not be affected by adverse mortality
experience or by an increase in expenses in excess of the expense deduction
for which provision has been made (see "Charges Under the Contracts,"
commencing on page of the Prospectus).
For a Variable Annuity the Annuitant will be paid the value of a fixed number
of Annuity Units each month. The value of such units and the amounts of the
monthly Variable Annuity payments will, however, reflect investment income
occurring after retirement, and thus the Variable Annuity payments will vary
with the investment experience of the Fund shares selected.
B. Electing the Annuity Commencement Date and Form of Annuity
The Contract Owner selects an Annuity Commencement Date and an Annuity option
which may be on a fixed or variable basis, or a combination thereof. The
Annuity Commencement Date will not be deferred beyond the Annuitant's 90th
birthday, except for certain states where deferral past age 85 is not
permitted.
The Annuity Commencement Date and/or the Annuity option may be changed from
time to time, but any such change must be made at least 30 days prior to the
date on which Annuity payments are scheduled to begin.
The contract contains the five optional Annuity forms described below.
Options 2, 4, and 5 are available with respect to Qualified Contracts only if
the guaranteed payment period is less than the life expectancy of the
Annuitant at the time the option becomes effective. Such life expectancy
shall be computed on the basis of the mortality table prescribed by the IRS,
or if none is prescribed, the mortality table then in use by HL&A.
With respect to Non-Qualified Contracts, if you do not elect otherwise,
payments will automatically begin at the Annuitant's age 85 under Option 2
with 120 monthly payments certain.
<PAGE>
-7-
For Qualified Contracts and contracts issued in Texas, if you do not elect
otherwise, payments will begin automatically at the Annuitant's age 85 under
Option 1 to provide a life Annuity.
When an Annuity is effected under a contract, unless otherwise specified,
variable values will be applied to provide a Variable Annuity based on
Contract Values as they are held in the various Sub-Accounts under the
contracts. Fixed Account Contract Values will be applied to provide a Fixed
Annuity. The Contract Owner should consider the question of allocation of
Contract Values among Sub-Accounts of the Separate Account and the General
Account of HL&A to make certain that Annuity payments are based on the
investment alternative best suited to the Contract Owner's needs for
retirement.
If at any time Annuity payments with respect to a Variable or a Fixed Annuity
or a combination of the two are or become less than $50.00 per payment, HL&A
has the right to change the frequency of payment to such intervals as will
result in Annuity payments of at least $50.00. For New York contracts the
minimum payment is $20.00
There may be other annuity options available offered by HL&A from time to
time.
C. Optional Annuity Forms
OPTION 1: Life Annuity
A life Annuity is an Annuity payable during the lifetime of the Annuitant and
terminating with the last monthly payment preceding the death of the
Annuitant. This option offers the maximum level of monthly payments of any
of the life Annuity options since there is no guarantee of a minimum number
of payments nor a provision for a death benefit payable to a Beneficiary.
It would be possible under this option for an Annuitant to receive only one
Annuity payment if he died prior to the due date of the second Annuity
payment, two if he died before the due date of the third Annuity payment,
etc.
OPTION 2: Life Annuity with 120, 180 or 240 Monthly Payments Certain
This Annuity option is an Annuity payable monthly during the lifetime of an
Annuitant with the provision that if, at the death of the Annuitant, payments
have been made for less than 120, 180 or 240 months, as elected, then the
present value as of the date of the Annuitant's death of the current dollar
amount at the date of death, of any remaining guaranteed monthly payments
will be paid in one sum to the Beneficiary or Beneficiaries designated.

For the purpose of this illustration, purchase is assumed to have been made
on the fifth business day preceding the first payment date. In determining
the second and subsequent payments, the Annuity Unit value of the fifth
business day preceding the Annuity due date is used.
OPTION 3: Joint and Last Survivor Annuity
An Annuity payable monthly during the joint lifetime of the Annuitant and a
designated second person, and thereafter during the remaining lifetime of
the survivor, ceasing with the last payment prior to the death of the
survivor.
It would be possible under this option for an Annuitant and designated
second person in the event of the common or simultaneous death of the
parties to receive only one payment in the event of death prior to the due
date for the second payment and so on.
OPTION 4: Payments for a Designated Period
An amount payable monthly for the number of years selected which may be
from 5 to 30 years. Under this option, you may, at any time, surrender the
contract and receive, within seven days, the Termination Value of the
contract.
In the event of the Annuitant's death prior to the end of the designated
period, the present value as of the date of the Annuitant's death, of the
current dollar amount of any remaining guaranteed monthly payments will be
paid in one sum to the Beneficiary or Beneficiaries designated.
Option 4 is an option that does not involve life contingencies and thus no
mortality guarantee. Charges made for the mortality undertaking under the
contracts thus provide no real benefit to a Contract Owner.
<PAGE>
-9-
Option 5: Death Benefit Remaining with the Company
Proceeds from the Death Benefit may be left with the Company for a period
not to exceed five years from the date of the Contract Owner's death prior
to the Annuity Commencement Date will remain in the Sub-Account(s) to which
they were allocated at the time of death unless the Beneficiary elects to
reallocate them. Full or partial withdrawals may be made at any time. In
the event of withdrawals, the remaining value will equal the Contract Value
of the proceeds left with the Company, minus any withdrawals. For purposes
of determining this charge, the original Contract Date of this Contract
will be used.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Under any of the Annuity options above, excluding Option 4, no surrenders
are permitted after Annuity payments commence. Only full surrenders are
allowed out of Option 4 and any such surrender will be subject to
contingent deferred charges, if applicable.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
D. The Annuity Unit and Valuation
The value of the Annuity Unit for each Sub-Account in the Separate Account
for any day is determined by multiplying the value for the preceding day by
the product of (1) the net investment factor (see page of the prospectus)
for the day for which the Annuity Unit value is being calculated, and (2) a
factor to neutralize the assumed investment rate of 4.00% per annum
discussed in Section E. below.

E. Determination of Amount of First Monthly Annuity Payment-Fixed and Variable
When Annuity payments are to commence, the value of the contract is
determined as the sum of the value of the Fixed Account no earlier than the
close of business on the fifth Valuation Day preceding the date the first
Annuity payment is due plus the product of the value of the Accumulation
Unit of each Sub-Account on that same day, and the number of Accumulation
Units credited to each Sub-Account as of the date the Annuity is to
commence.
<PAGE>
-10-
The contract contains tables indicating the minimum dollar amount of the
first monthly payment under the optional forms of Annuity for each $1,000
of value of a Sub-Account under a contract. The first monthly payment
varies according to the form and type of Annuity selected. The contracts
contains Annuity tables derived from the 1983a Individual Annuity
Mortality table with ages set back one year with an assumed investment rate
("A.I.R.") of 4% per annum. The total first monthly Variable Annuity
payment is determined by multiplying the value (expressed in thousands of
dollars) of a Sub-Account (less any applicable Premium Taxes) by the amount
of the first monthly payment per $1,000 of value obtained from the tables
in the contracts.
Fixed Annuity payments are determined at annuitization by multiplying the
values allocated to the Fixed Account by a rate to be determined by
Hartford Life & Accident Insurance Company which is no less than the rate
specified in the Annuity tables in the contract. The Annuity payment will
remain level for the duration of the Annuity.
F. Amount of Second and Subsequent Monthly Variable Annuity Payments
The amount of the first monthly Variable Annuity payment, determined as
described above, is divided by the value of an Annuity Unit for the
appropriate Sub-Account no earlier than the close of business on the fifth
Valuation Day preceding the day on which the payment is due in order to
determine the number of Annuity Units represented by the first payment.
This number of Annuity Units remains fixed during the Annuity Period, and
in each subsequent month the dollar amount of the Variable Annuity payment
is determined by multiplying this fixed number of Annuity Units by the then
current Annuity Unit value.
Level Variable Annuity Payments would be produced if the investment rate
remained constant and equal to the A.I.R. In fact, payments will vary up
or down as the investment rate varies up or down from the A.I.R.
G. Date and Time of Annuity Payments
The Annuity payments will be made on the fifteenth day of each month
following selection. The Annuity Unit value used in calculating the amount
of the Variable Annuity payments will be based on an Annuity Unit value
determined as of the close of business on a day no earlier than the fifth
Valuation Day preceding the date of the Annuity payment.
CALCULATION OF YIELD AND RETURN
YIELD OF THE HVA MONEY MARKET FUND SUB-ACCOUNT. As summarized in the Prospectus
under the heading "Performance Related Information," the yield of the Money
Market Fund Sub-Account for a seven day period (the "base period") will be
computed by determining the
<PAGE>
-11-
"net change in value" (calculated as set forth below) of a hypothetical account
having a balance of one share at the beginning of the period, dividing the net
change in account value by the value of the account at the beginning of the base
period to obtain the base period return, and multiplying the base period return
by 365/7 with the resulting yield figure carried to the nearest hundredth of one
percent. Net changes in value of a hypothetical account will include net
investment income of the account (accrued daily dividends as declared by the
underlying funds, less daily expense charges of the account) for the period, but
will not include realized gains or losses or unrealized appreciation or
depreciation on the underlying fund shares.
The Money Market Fund Sub-Account yield and effective yield will vary in
response to fluctuations in interest rates and in the expenses of the two
Sub-Accounts.
THE CURRENT YIELD AND EFFECTIVE YIELD REFLECT RECURRING CHARGES ON THE SEPARATE
ACCOUNT LEVEL, INCLUDING THE MAXIMUM ANNUAL POLICY FEE.
Money Market Fund Sub-Account
The yield and effective yield for the seven day period ending December 31, 1994
is as follows:
($25 annual policy fee)
Yield 4.06%
Effective Yield 4.14%
YIELDS OF BOND FUND AND MORTGAGE SECURITIES FUND SUB-ACCOUNTS. As summarized in
the Prospectus under the heading "Performance Related Information," yields of
these two Sub-Accounts will be computed by annualizing a recent month's net
investment income, divided by a Fund share's net asset value on the last trading
day of that month. Net changes in the value of a hypothetical account will
assume the change in the underlying mutual fund's "net asset value per share"
for the same period in addition to the daily expense charge assessed, at the
sub-account level for the respective period. The Bond Fund and Mortgage
Securities Fund Sub-Accounts' yields will vary from time to time depending upon
market conditions and, the composition of the underlying funds' portfolios.
Yield should also be considered relative to changes in the value of the
Sub-Accounts' shares and to the relative risks associated with the investment
objectives and policies of the Bond Fund and Mortgage Securities Fund.
The yield reflects recurring charges on the Separate Account level, including
the annual policy fee.
BOND FUND SUB-ACCOUNT
Yield calculations of the Sub-Account used for illustration purposes reflect the
interest earned by the Sub-Account, less applicable asset charges assessed
against a Contract Owner's account over the base period. The following is the
method used to determine the yield for the 30 day period ended December 31,
1994.
<PAGE>
-12-
Example:
Current Yield Formula for the Sub-Account
2*[((A-B)/(C*D) + 1)TO THE 6TH POWER - 1]
Where A = Dividends and interest earned during the period.
B = Expenses accrued for the period (net of reimbursements).
C = The average daily number of units outstanding during
the period that were entitled to receive dividends.
D = The maximum offering price per unit on the last day
of the period.
Yield = 5.87%
MORTGAGE SECURITIES FUND SUB-ACCOUNT
Yield calculations of the Sub-Account used for illustration purposes reflect the
interest earned by the Sub-Account, less applicable asset charges assessed
against a Contract Owner's account over the base period. The following is the
method used to determine the yield for the 30 days period ended December 31,
1994.
Example:
Current Yield Formula for the Sub-Account
2*[((A-B)/(C*D) + 1)TO THE 6TH POWER - 1]
Where A = Dividends and interest earned during the period.
B = Expenses accrued for the period (net of reimbursements).
C = The average daily number of units outstanding during
the period that were entitled to receive dividends.
D = The maximum offering price per unit on the last day
of the period.
Yield = 6.51%
At any time in the future, yields and total return may be higher or lower than
past yields and there can be no assurance that any historical results will
continue.
The method of calculating yields described above for these Sub-Accounts differs
from the method used by the Sub-Accounts prior to May 1, 1988. The denominator
of the fraction used to calculate yield was previously the average unit value
for the period calculated. That denominator will hereafter be the unit value of
the Sub-Accounts on the last trading day of the period calculated.
<PAGE>
-13-
CALCULATION OF TOTAL RETURN. As summarized in the Prospectus under the heading
"Performance Related Information", total return is a measure of the change in
value of an investment in a Sub-Account over the period covered. The formula
for total return used herein includes three steps: (1) calculating the value of
the hypothetical initial investment of $1,000 as of the end of the period by
multiplying the total number of units owned at the end of the period by the unit
value per unit on the last trading day of the period by the unit value per unit
on the last trading day of the period; (2) assuming redemption at the end of the
period and deducting any applicable contingent deferred sales charge and (3)
dividing this account value for the hypothetical investor by the initial $1,000
investment and annualizing the result for periods of less than one year. Total
return will be calculated for one year, five years and ten years or some other
relevant periods if a Sub-Account has not been in existence for at least ten
years.
PERFORMANCE COMPARISONS
YIELD AND TOTAL RETURN. Each Sub-Account may from time to time include its
total return in advertisements or in information furnished to present to
prospective shareholders. Each Sub-Account may from time to time include its
yield and total return in advertisements or information furnished to present to
prospective shareholders. Each Sub-Account may from time to time include in
advertisements its total return (and yield in the case of certain Sub-Accounts)
the ranking of those performance figures relative to such figures for groups of
other annuities analyzed by Lipper Analytical Services and Morningstar, Inc. as
having the same investment objectives.
The total return and yield may also be used to compare the performance of the
Sub-Accounts against certain widely acknowledged outside standards or indices
for stock and bond market performance. The Standard & Poor's Composite Index of
500 Stocks (the "S&P 500") is a market value-weighted and unmanaged index
showing the changes in the aggregate market value of 500 stocks relative to the
base period 1941-43. The S&P 500 is composed almost entirely of common stocks
of companies listed on the New York Stock Exchange, although the common stocks
of a few companies listed on the American Stock Exchange or traded
over-the-counter are included. The 500 companies represented include 400
industrial, 60 transportation and 40 financial services concerns. The S&P 500
represents about 80% of the market value of all issues traded on the New York
Stock Exchange.
The NASDAQ-OTC Composite Price Index (The "NASDAQ Index") is a market
value-weighted and unmanaged index showing the changes in the aggregate market
value of approximately 3,500 stocks relative to the base measure of 100.00 on
February 5, 1971. The NASDAQ Index is composed entirely of common stocks of
companies traded over-the-counter and often through the National Association of
Securities Dealers Automated Quotations ("NASDAQ") system. Only those
over-the-counter stocks having only one market maker or traded on exchanges are
excluded.
<PAGE>
-14-
The Morgan Stanley Capital International EAFE Index (the "EAFE Index") is an
unmanaged index, which includes over 1,000 companies representing the stock
markets of Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and the Far East. The EAFE Index is
weighted by market capitalization, and therefore, it has a heavy representation
in countries with large stock markets, such as Japan.
The Lehman Government Bond Index (the "Lehman Government Index") is a measure of
the market value of all public obligations of the U.S. Treasury; all publicly
issued debt of all agencies of the U.S. Government and all quasi-federal
corporations; and all corporate debt guaranteed by the U.S. Government.
Mortgage-backed securities, flower bonds and foreign targeted issued are not
included in the Lehman Government Index.
The Lehman Government/Corporate Bond Index (the "Lehman Government/Corporate
Index") is a measure of the market value of approximately 5,300 bonds with a
face value currently in excess of $1.3 trillion. To be included in the Lehman
Government/Corporate Index, an issue must have amounts outstanding in excess of
$1 million, have at least one year to maturity and be rated "Baa" or higher
("investment grade") by a nationally recognized rating agency.
The Composite Index for HVA Advisers Fund is comprised of the S&P 500 (55%), the
Lehman Government/Corporate Bond Index (35%), both mentioned above, and 90 Day
U.S. Treasury Bills (10%).
The manner in which total return and yield will be calculated for public use is
described above. The following table summarizes the calculation of total return
and yield for each Sub-Account, where applicable, through December 31, 1994.

NOTE - Average annual total return assumes a hypothetical initial payment of
$1,000. At the end of each period, a total surrender is assumed.
Maintenance fees of $25 and contingent deferred sales loads of up to 7%,
if applicable, are deducted to determine ending redeemable value of the
original payment. Then, the ending redeemable value is divided by the
original investment to calculate total return.

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of ITT
Hartford Life & Accident Insurance Company Separate Account One as of December
31, 1994, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended and
statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then
ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Hartford Life & Accident

ARTHUR ANDERSEN LLP
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Directors of
Hartford Life and Accident Insurance Company:
We have audited the accompanying statutory-basis balance sheets of Hartford
Life and Accident Insurance Company (a Connecticut corporation and
wholly-owned subsidiary of Hartford Accident and Indemnity Insurance
Company) (the Company) as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related
statutory-basis statements of income, changes in capital and surplus and
cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31,
1994. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
statutory-basis 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.
The Company presents its financial statements in conformity with statutory
accounting practices as described in Note 1. When statutory-basis financial
statements are presented for purposes other than for filing with a
regulatory agency, generally accepted auditing standards require that an
auditor's report on them state whether they are presented in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. The accounting practices used by
the Company vary from generally accepted accounting principles as explained
and quantified in Note 1. In our opinion, because the differences in
accounting practices as described in Note 1 are material, the
statutory-basis financial statements referred to above do not present
fairly, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the
financial position of the Company as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the
results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 1994.
<PAGE>
However, in our opinion, the statutory-basis financial statements referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
the Company as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 1994 in conformity with statutory accounting practices as

HARTFORD LIFE AND ACCIDENT INSURANCE COMPANY
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Amounts in thousands unless otherwise stated)
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
ORGANIZATION
Hartford Life and Accident Insurance Company (HLA or the Company) is a
wholly owned subsidiary of Hartford Accident and Indemnity Insurance
Company (HA&I), which is an indirect subsidiary of the ITT Hartford
Insurance Group, Inc. (ITT Hartford), a wholly owned subsidiary of
ITT Corporation (ITT). HLA is the parent company of Hartford Life
Insurance Company (HLIC), American Maturity Life Insurance Company,
Alpine Life Insurance Company and has an indirect interest in ITT
Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance Company and ITT Hartford Life of
Canada Insurance Company.
HLA has experienced significant growth in the group long and short term
disability markets over the last several years and has concentrated its
efforts to maximize its position in those markets. The Company also
offers a complete line of the regular forms of traditional and universal
life insurance, annuities and individual disability income coverages.
Ordinary life is written exclusively on the non-participating plan.
During 1992, the company began selling individual flexible premium
annuity products containing several variable options (within the
company's separate accounts) along with a fixed general account option.
The Company also sells group life and offered a full range of health
plans including a complete selection of group medical/dental plans,
with traditional, minimum premium plan, administrative services only
and stop loss funding arrangements. The Company complimented its medical
offerings through partnership arrangements with local managed care
networks in most metropolitan markets. During 1993, the Company decided
to exit the medical and dental business which will take effect during
1994 and 1995.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying statutory basis financial statements of HLA were
prepared in conformity with statutory accounting practices prescribed
or permitted by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners
(NAIC) and the Insurance Department of the State of Connecticut.
Statutory accounting practices and generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP) differ in certain significant respects. These
differences principally involve:
(1) treatment of policy acquisition costs (commissions, underwriting
and selling expenses, premium taxes, etc.) which are charged to
expense when incurred for statutory purposes rather than on a
pro-rata basis over the expected life of the policy;
(2) recognition of premium revenues, which for statutory purposes
are generally recorded as collected or when due during the premium
paying period of the contract. For GAAP purposes, revenues for
universal life policies and investment products consist of policy
charges for the cost of insurance, policy administration and
surrender charges assessed to policy account balances. Premiums for
traditional life insurance policies are recognized as revenues when
they are due from policyholders. The retrospective deposit method is
used in accounting for universal life and other types of contracts
where the payment pattern is irregular or surrender charges are a
significant source of profit. The prospective deposit method is used
where investment margins are the primary source of profit;
(3) development of liabilities for future policy benefits, which for
statutory purposes predominantly use interest rate and mortality
assumptions prescribed by the National Association of Insurance
Commissioners (NAIC) which may vary considerably from interest and
mortality assumptions used for GAAP financial reporting;
<PAGE>
-2-
(4) providing for income taxes based on current taxable income only
for statutory purposes, rather than establishing additional assets or
liabilities for deferred federal income taxes to recognize the tax
effect related to reporting revenues and expenses in different
periods for financial statement and tax reporting purposes;
(5) excluding certain assets designated as non-admitted assets (past
due agent's balances, furniture and equipment, etc.) from the balance
sheet for statutory purposes by directly charging surplus;
(6) establishing accruals for post-retirement and post-employment
health care benefits on an optional basis, immediate recognition or
a twenty year phase-in approach, whereas GAAP liabilities were
established at date of adoption. For statutory reporting purposes,
the Company established accruals utilizing the twenty year phase-in
approach;
(7) establishing a formula reserve for realized and unrealized losses
due to default and equity risk associated with certain invested
assets (Asset Valuation Reserve); as well as the deferral and
amortization of realized gains and losses, resulting from changes in
interest rates during the period the asset is held, into income over
the remaining life of the asset sold (Interest Maintenance Reserve);
whereas on a GAAP basis, no such formula reserve is required and
realized gains and losses are recognized in the period the asset is
sold;
(8) the reporting of net reserves and benefits as a result of
reinsurance ceded, where risk transfer has taken place. On a GAAP
basis reserves are reported gross of reinsurance with reserve
credits taken as recoverable assets.
(9) the reporting of fixed maturities at amortized cost, where
GAAP requires that fixed maturities be classified as "held-to-
maturity", "available-for-sale" or "trading", based on the Company's
intentions with respect to the ultimate disposition of the security
and its ability to effect those intentions. The Company's fixed
maturities were classified on a GAAP basis as "available-for-sale"
and accordingly, these investments were reflected at fair value with
the corresponding impact included as a component of Stockholder's
Equity designated as "Unrealized Loss on Securities. Net of Tax."
As of December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, the significant differences
between statutory and GAAP basis net income and capital and surplus
are summarized as follows:

</TABLE>
AGGREGATE RESERVES AND LIABILITIES FOR PREMIUM AND OTHER DEPOSIT FUNDS
Aggregate reserves for payment of future life, health and annuity
benefits were computed in accordance with presently accepted actuarial
standards. Reserves for future life insurance benefits are established
and maintained primarily using the Commissioner's Reserve Valuation
Method (CRVM). Reserves for life insurance policies are generally based
on the 1958 and 1983 Commissioner's Standard Ordinary Mortality Tables at
various rates ranging from 2.5% to 7.75%. On-benefit annuity reserves
are based principally on Individual and Group Annuity Tables at various
rates ranging from 2.5% to 8%. Premium and deposit funds are generally
valued on the Commissioner's Annuity Reserve Valuation Method (CARVM).
Health claim reserves are established using the loss development factor
method. Disability reserves are based on the present value of estimated
future benefits.
HLA has established separate accounts to segregate the assets and
liabilities of certain annuity contracts that must be segregated from
the Company's general assets under the terms of the contracts. The
assets consist primarily of marketable securities reported at market
value. Premiums, benefits and expenses of these contracts are reported
in the Statutory Statement of Income.
INVESTMENTS
Investments in fixed maturities include bonds which are carried at
amortized cost. Bonds which are deemed ineligible to be held at
amortized cost by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners
(NAIC) Securities Valuation Office (SVO) are carried at the appropriate
SVO published value. When a permanent reduction in the value of publicly
traded securities occurs, the decrease is reported as a realized loss
and the carrying value is adjusted accordingly. Common stocks are carried
at market value with the after-tax difference from cost reflected in
surplus. Other invested assets are generally recorded at fair value.
<PAGE>
-4-
INVESTMENTS - (CONTINUED)
The Company uses a variety of financial instruments including interest
rate swaps, floors, issued caps, exchange traded financial futures,
foreign currency swaps, options on bonds and futures, and forward
commitments as a means of hedging exposure to price and/or interest rate
risk on planned investment purchases or existing assets and liabilities.
Income and losses generated from these instruments is generally deferred
and amortized over the life of the hedged asset or liability.
Realized capital gains and losses, net of taxes and amounts transferred
to the Interest Maintenance Reserve (IMR), are reported in the Statement
of Income. Changes in unrealized capital gains and losses on common stock
are reported as additions to or reductions of surplus. The Asset
Valuation Reserve is designed to provide a standardized reserve process
for realized and unrealized losses due to the default and equity risks
associated with invested assets. The reserve increased by $3,498, $8,930
and $3,237 in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. Additionally, the IMR,
captures net realized capital gains and losses, net of applicable income
taxes, resulting from changes in interest rates and amortizes these gains
or losses into income over the remaining life of the mortgage loan or
bond sold. The amount of 1994, 1993 and 1992 net capital losses
reclassified to IMR were $1,790, $9,577 and $7,408, respectively. The
amount of losses amortized in 1994, 1993 and 1992 were $5,393, $404
and $2,270, respectively. Realized investment gains and losses are
determined on a specific identification basis.
RECLASSIFICATIONS:
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year financial
statements to conform to current year classifications.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair
value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practical
to do so: securities and derivative instruments, including swaps, issued
caps, floors, futures, forward commitments and collars, are based on
dealer quotes or quoted market prices for the same or similar
securities; investments in partnerships and trusts are based on external
market valuations from partnership and trust management; and other
policy claims and benefits payable are determined by estimating future
cash flows discounted at the current market rate.
3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:
Transactions between the Company and Hartford Fire relate principally to
tax settlements, reinsurance, rental and service fees, capital
contributions and payments of dividends. Substantially all general
expenses related to HLA, including rent expenses, are initially paid by
Hartford Fire. Direct expenses are allocated using specific
identification and indirect expenses are allocated using other
applicable methods. The rent paid to Hartford Fire for the space
occupied by HLA was $7,926, $7,926 and $7,646 in 1994, 1993 and 1992.
Transactions between the Company and its direct subsidiary, HLIC, relate
principally to tax settlements, expenses, reinsurance, rental and
service fees, capital contributions and payments of dividends.
For additional information, see Footnote 5, 6 and 7.
4. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES:
HLA and its affiliates are included in the consolidated Federal income
tax return of Hartford Fire which is ultimately included in the income
tax return of ITT. Allocation of taxes is based primarily upon separate
company tax return calculations with current credit for net losses used
in consolidation. Intercompany Federal income tax balances are
generally settled quarterly with Hartford Fire.
Federal income taxes paid by the Company were $7,655, $1,073 and $12,751
in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.
5. CAPITAL AND SURPLUS AND SHAREHOLDER DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS:
The maximum amount of dividends which can be paid, without prior
approval, by State of Connecticut insurance companies to shareholders is
generally restricted to the greater of 10% of surplus as of the
preceding December 31st or the net gain from operations for the previous
year. Dividends are paid as determined by the Board of Directors and are
not cumulative. Dividends paid by the Company to its parent, HA&I were
$42,979, $34,708 and $29,883 in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.
Additionally, dividends declared by the Company to its parent, HA&I in
1994, 1993 and 1992 were $29,279, $48,408 and $29,883, respectively.
HLA received capital contributions totalling $167,900, including the
stock of ITT Hartford Life of Canada ($17,900) and $150,000 in 1994 and
1993, respectively, from its parent, Hartford A & I. In 1993, HLA
contributed $180,000 of capital to HLIC.
6. PENSION PLANS AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS:
The Company's employees are included in Hartford Fire's non-contributory
defined benefit pension plans. These plans provide pension benefits that
are based on years of service and the employee's compensation during the
last ten years of employment. The Company's funding policy is to
contribute annually an amount between the minimum funding requirements
set forth in the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and the
maximum amount that can be deducted for Federal income tax purposes.
Generally, pension costs are funded through the purchase of the
Company's group pension contracts. Pension expense was $2,428, $4,520
and $4,717 in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. Liabilities for these
plans are included in the financial statements of Hartford Fire.
The Company also participates in ITT's Investment and Savings Plan,
which includes a deferred compensation option under IRC section 401(k)
and an ESOP allocation under IRC section 404(k). The liabilities for
these plans are included in the financial statements of Hartford Fire.
<PAGE>
-11-
PENSION PLANS AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS - (CONTINUED)
The Company's employees are included in the Hartford Fire's
contributory defined health care and life insurance benefit plans.
These plans provide health care and life insurance benefits for retired
employees. Substantially all employees may become eligible for those
benefits if they reach normal or early retirement age while still
working for the Company. The Company has prefunded a portion of the
health care and life insurance obligations through trust funds where
such prefunding can be accomplished on a tax effective basis.
Postretirement health care and life insurance benefits expense (not
including provisions for accrual of postretirement benefit obligations),
allocated by Hartford Fire, was $1,895, $1,542 and $1,961 for 1994, 1993
and 1992, respectively.
The Company began accruing for postretirement benefit obligations other
than pensions during 1993. In accordance with statutory accounting
procedures, the Company elected to establish these liabilities of
$17,380 based on a twenty-year phase in approach. Accordingly, the
Company recognized an expense of $869 in 1994 as a result of this new
accounting procedure.
The assumed rate of future increases in the per capita cost of health
care (the health care trend rate) was 11% for 1994, decreasing ratably
to 6.0% in the year 2001. Increasing the health care trend rates by
one percent per year would have an immaterial impact on the accumulated
postretirement benefit obligation and the annual expense.
Post-employment benefits are primarily comprised of obligations to
provide medical and life insurance to employees on long term disability.
Post-employment benefits expense was not material in 1994, 1993 and 1992.
7. REINSURANCE:
In November 1993, HLA ceded substantially all of the individual fixed
and variable annuity business to ITT Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance
Company (ILA). As a result of this transaction, the assets and
liabilities of the company decreased approximately $1 billion.
The Company assumes all accident and health, credit and group life
insurance in force, except for corporate owned life insurance from HLIC,
as well as all group life and health business written by Hartford Fire
and certain domestic property casualty affiliates of ITT Hartford. The
Company cedes all individual life insurance to HLIC. The Company also
maintains reinsurance treaties, primarily annual renewable term
agreements, with numerous life insurance companies.
The Company did not write-off any uncollectible reinsurance recoverables
during the year. In management's opinion, there is no material exposure
from uncollected reinsurance. The Company did not commute any
reinsurance during the year.
8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:
The Company has no material contingent liabilities, nor has the Company
committed any surplus funds for any contingent liabilities or
arrangements. HLA is involved in various legal actions which have arisen
in the normal course of the Company's business. In the opinion of
management, the ultimate liability with respect to such lawsuits as well
as other contingencies is not considered to be material in relation to
the results of operations and financial position of the Company.

THIS AGREEMENT, dated as of the ___ day of ______, 1991, made by and between

existing under the laws of the State of Connecticut,
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of HL&A has made provision for the
establishment of a separate account within HL&A in accordance with the
laws of the State of Connecticut, which separate account was organized and
is established and registered as a unit trust type investment company with
the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended, and which is designated Hartford Life & Accident
Insurance Company Separate Account Two (referred to as the "Unit Trust");
and
WHEREAS, HESCO offers to the public a certain Individual Flexible Premium
Annuity Insurance Contracts contract (the "Contract") issued by HL&A
with respect to the Unit Trust and units of interest thereunder which are
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended; and
WHEREAS, HESCO has previously agreed to act as distributor in connection
with offers and sales of the Contract under the terms and conditions set
forth in this Distribution Agreement.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements made herein, the
Sponsor and HESCO agree as follows:
I.
HESCO'S DUTIES
1. HESCO, as principal underwriter for the Contract, will use its best efforts
to effect offers and sales of the Contract through broker-dealers that are

registered representatives are duly licensed as insurance agents of HL&A.
HESCO is responsible for compliance with all applicable requirements of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, and the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the rules
and regulations thereunder, and all other applicable laws, rules and

<PAGE>
-2-
2. HESCO agrees that it will not use any prospectus, sales literature, or any
other printed matter or material or offer for sale or sell the Contract if

duties, obligations and liabilities as are set forth in this Agreement, as
it may be amended from time to time.
3. HESCO agrees that it will utilize the then currently effective prospectus
relating to the Unit Trust's Contracts in connection with its selling
efforts.
As to the other types of sales materials, HESCO agrees that it will use

sales, and Company may require Agent to cancel the appointment
of any sub-agent with Company.

Business (i.e. Class I Agent for Variable Annuities and a Class V
Agent for Individual Life, Annuity and Health Insurance), the

of such Contracts and that all such persons shall be subject to the
control of Agent with respect to such persons' activities in
connection with the Contracts. Agent will cause the sub-agents to be
trained in the sale of the Contracts and will cause such sub-agents to

Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. and of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 and all other applicable federal or state
laws and will establish such rules and procedures as may be

activities of the sub-agents. Upon request by Company, Agent
shall furnish any records necessary to establish such diligent
supervision.
3.1.2 Before a sub-agent is permitted to solicit and procure
applications for the Contracts, Agent and the sub-agent shall
have entered into an agreement pursuant to which the sub-agent
will be appointed a sub-agent and a registered representative
of Agent and in which the sub-agent will agree that his
selling activities relating to the Contracts will be under the
supervision and control of Agent, and the sub-agent's right to
continue to sell such Contracts is subject to his continued
compliance with such agreement.
3.1.3 In the event a sub-agent fails or refuses to submit to
supervision of Agent in accordance with this Agreement, or
otherwise fails to meet the rules and standards imposed by
Agent, Agent shall immediately notify such sub-agent that he
is no longer authorized to sell the Contracts, and Agent shall
take whatever additional action may be necessary to terminate
the sales activities of such sub-agent relating to the
Contracts including immediate notification of Company of such
termination.

supervision of all registered representatives of Broker/Dealer
and who are sub-agents of Agent and who are engaged directly
or indirectly in the offer or sale of such SEC Registered
Contracts and that all such representatives shall be subject to
the control of Agent and Broker/Dealer with respect to their
activities in connection with the SEC Registered Contracts.

and while this Agreement is in effect.

for the periods of time as set forth in the Commission
Schedules included in this Agreement or subsequently made a
part hereof, and which are in effect at the time such
Contracts are sold.
4.1.2 The Commission Schedules included in this Agreement are
subject to change by Company at any time, but only upon
written notice to Agent. No such change shall affect any
Contracts issued upon applications received by Company at

subsequently made a part hereof may provide other or
additional conditions regarding compensation and if so, will
be controlling to the extent of the other or additional
conditions.
4.2 Compensation will be earned by Agent only for those applications
accepted by Company, and only after receipt by Company at Company's
Home Office in Hartford, Connecticut, of the required premium and
compliance by Agent with any outstanding delivery requirements.

premiums on health insurance contracts) waived by Company

Section 4.0 shall be reduced by the amount, if any, of such
compensation paid directly, at the direction of Agent, by Company to
any person and appointed by Company and Agent or, in connection with
group policies, the amounts paid by Company to a resident licensed
agent in a state which requires the countersignature by, or the
effectuating of the insurance through, a resident licensed agent.

reasons specified in Subparagraphs 7.2.2 or 7.2.3 below, no further

calendar year following such termination the aggregate commissions
payable hereunder for all life and health policies (not SEC regulated
contracts) total less than $100.00, no further commissions shall be
payable hereunder, other references to vesting to the contrary not
withstanding. This rule is not applicable to any SEC registered
equity product.
With respect to registered Contracts, if Agent is disqualified for
continued registration with the NASD, Company shall not be obligated
to pay any compensation, the payment of which would represent a
violation of NASD rules.
4.6 With respect to registered Contracts, if Agent is disqualified for
continued registration with the NASD, Company shall not be obligated
to pay any compensation, the payment of which would represent a
violation of NASD rules.

In such event, Company shall hold any commission otherwise due on any
Contract in force in "escrow" from the date of such disqualification
until the termination of any litigation or administrative proceedings
relating to such disqualification, provided Agent commences an appeal
to the NASD within 180 days following the disqualification notice and
actively pursues such appeal. Should Agent's registration in the NASD
be reinstated, all compensation due or becoming due Agent during the
period of disqualification shall be immediately paid, provided this
does not violate any NASD rules or regulations in effect at said time.

a waiver in the future of that same provision.

or proceeding against Company, Agent shall forward forthwith such
process or notice to Company at its Home Office in Hartford,

class of contracts to which this contract belongs from the
other assets of the Company. The Separate Account and the
Funds, which are the underlying securities of the Separate
Account, are listed on the Contract Specifications on Page 3
of this contract.
SPECIFIED CONTRACT ANNIVERSARIES - The Contract Anniversaries
shown on page 3.
SUB-ACCOUNT - The subdivisions of the Separate Account which
are used to determine how the Contract Owner's Account is
allocated between the Funds.
TERMINATION VALUE - The value of the contract upon
termination, as described in the section of the contract
captioned "Termination Provisions."
VALUATION DAY - Every day the New York Stock Exchange is open
for trading.
PREMIUM PREMIUM PAYMENTS
PAYMENTS
Premium payments are payable at the Home Office of
the Company. Payments may be made by check payable to
Hartford Life and Accident Insurance Company or by any
other method which the Company deems acceptable.
The Initial Premium Payment is shown on Page 3. This is a
flexible premium annuity. Additional payments may be accepted
by the Company. The additional payments must be at least equal
to the minimum subsequent premium payment shown on Page 3.
ALLOCATION OF PREMIUM PAYMENTS
The Contract Owner shall specify that portion of any premium
payment to be allocated to each Account, provided, however,
that the minimum allocation to any Account may not be less
than the Company's minimum amount then in effect.
The Contract Owner may transfer Contract Values held in the
Accounts into other Accounts; however, the Company reserves
the right to limit the number of transfers to no more
frequently than 12 per Contract Year with no two transfers
being made on consecutive Valuation Days. Subject to the
following two paragraphs, any such limitations will apply to
all Contract Owners.
The right to reallocate Contract Values between the Accounts
is subject to modification if the Company determines, in its
sole opinion, that the exercise of that right by one or more
Contract Owners is, or would be, to the disadvantage of other
Contract Owners. Any modification could be applied to
transfers to or from some or all of the Accounts and could
include, but not be limited to, the requirement of a minimum
time period between each transfer, not accepting transfer
requests of an agent acting under a power of attorney on
behalf of more than one Contract Owner, or limiting the dollar
amount that may be transferred between the Accounts by a
Contract Owner at any one time. Such restrictions may be
applied in any manner reasonably designed to prevent any use
of the transfer right which is considered by the Company to be
to the disadvantage of other Contract Owners.

PREMIUM
PAYMENTS
(CONTINUED) The maximum amount transferable from the Fixed Account during
any Contract Year is the greater of 30% of the Fixed Account
balance as of the last Contract Anniversary or the greatest of
any prior transfer from the Fixed Account. This limitation
does not apply to Dollar Cost Averaging. However, if any
interest rate is renewed at a rate at least one percentage
point less than the previous rate, the Contract Owner may
elect to transfer up to 100% of the funds receiving that
reduced rate within 60 days of notification of the interest
rate decrease. Transfers may not be made from the Sub-Accounts
into the Fixed Account for the six-month period following any
transfer from the Fixed Account into the other Sub-Accounts.
The Company reserves the right to defer transfers from the
Fixed Account for up to six months from the date of request.
CONTRACT ANNUITANT, CONTINGENT ANNUITANT, CONTRACT OWNER
CONTROL
PROVISIONS The Annuitant may not be changed.
The designations of Contract Owner and Contingent Annuitant
will remain in effect until changed by the Contract Owner.
Changes in the designation of the Contract Owner may be made
during the lifetime of the Annuitant by written notice to the
Company. Changes in the designation of Contingent Annuitant
may be made at any time prior to the Annuity Commencement Date
by written notice to the Company. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if no Contingent Annuitant has been named and the
Contract Owner/Annuitant's spouse is the Beneficiary, it will
be assumed that the Contract Owner/Annuitant's spouse is the
Contingent Annuitant.
The Contract Owner has the sole power to exercise all the
rights, options and privileges granted by this contract or
permitted by the Company and to agree with the Company to any
change in or amendment to the contract. The rights of the
Contract Owner shall be subject to the rights of any assignee
of record with the Company and of any irrevocably designated
beneficiary. In the case of joint Contract Owners, each
Contract Owner alone may exercise all rights, options and
privileges, except with respect to the Termination and Partial
Surrender/Withdrawal Privilege Provisions.
BENEFICIARY
The Designated Beneficiary will remain in effect until
changed by the Contract Owner. Changes in the Designated
Beneficiary may be made during the lifetime of the
Annuitant by written notice to the Home Office of
the Company. If the Designated Beneficiary has been designated
irrevocably, however, such designation cannot be changed or
revoked without such Beneficiary's written consent. Upon
receipt of such notice and written consent, if required, at
the Home Office of the Company, the new designation
will take effect as of the date the notice is signed, whether
or not the Annuitant or Contract Owner is alive at the time of
receipt of such notice. The change will be subject to any
payments made or other action taken by the Company before the
receipt of the notice.
In the event of the death of the Annuitant when there is no
surviving Contingent Annuitant, the Beneficiary will be as
follows. If the Annuitant is a joint Contract Owner and the
death of the Annuitant occurs prior to the Annuity
Commencement Date, the Beneficiary shall be the surviving
Contract Owner, notwithstanding that the Designated
Beneficiary may be different. Otherwise, the Beneficiary will
be the Designated Beneficiary then in effect. If there is no
Designated Beneficiary in effect or if the Designated
Beneficiary is no longer living, the Contract Owner will be the
Beneficiary. If the Annuitant is the sole Contract Owner and
there is no Designated Beneficiary in effect, the Annuitant's
estate will be the Beneficiary.

CONTRACT
CONTROL
PROVISIONS
(CONTINUED) In the event of the death of a Contract Owner prior to the
Annuity Commencement Date, the Beneficiary will be as follows.
If the owner was the sole Contract Owner, the Beneficiary
shall be the Designated Beneficiary then in effect. If no
Beneficiary designation is in effect or if the Designated
Beneficiary has predeceased the Contract Owner, the Contract
Owner's estate shall be the Beneficiary. At the first death of
a joint Contract Owner prior to the Annuity Commencement Date,
the Beneficiary shall be the surviving Contract Owner
notwithstanding that the Designated Beneficiary may be
different.
GENERAL THE CONTRACT
PROVISIONS
This contract constitutes the entire contract.
MODIFICATION
No modification of this contract shall be made except over the
signature of the President, a Vice President, a Secretary, or
an Assistant Secretary of the Company.
The Company reserves the right to modify the contract, but
only if such modification: (i) is necessary to make the
contract or the Separate Account comply with any law or
regulation issued by a governmental agency to which the
Company is subject; (ii) is necessary to assure continued
qualification of the contract under the Internal Revenue Code
or other federal or state laws relating to retirement
annuities or annuity contracts; (iii) is necessary to reflect
a change in the operation of the Separate Account or the Sub-
Account(s); (iv) provides additional Account options; or (v)
withdraws Account options. In the event of any such
modification, the Company will provide notice to the Contract
Owner, or to the payee(s) during the annuity period. The
Company may also make appropriate endorsement in the Contract
to reflect such modification.
MINIMUM VALUE STATEMENT
Any Termination Values, death benefits or settlement
provisions available under this contract equal or exceed those
required by the state in which the contract is delivered.
NON-PARTICIPATION
This contract does not share in the surplus earnings of the
Company. That portion of the assets of the Separate Account
equal to the reserves and other contract liabilities of the
Separate Account shall not be chargeable with liabilities
arising out of any other business the Company may conduct.
MISSTATEMENT OF AGE AND SEX
If the age or sex of the Annuitant has been misstated, the
amount of the annuity payable by the Company shall be that
provided by that portion of the amounts allocated to effect
such annuity on the basis of the corrected information without
changing the date of the first payment of such annuity. Any
underpayments by the Company shall be made up immediately and
any overpayments shall be charged against future amounts
becoming payable.
If the age of the Annuitant or Contract Owner has been
misstated, the amount of any death benefit payable shall be
determined based upon the correct age of the Annuitant or
Contract Owner.

GENERAL
PROVISIONS
(CONTINUED) INCONTESTABILITY
We cannot contest this Contract.
REPORTS TO THE CONTRACT OWNER
There shall be furnished to each Contract Owner copies of any
shareholder reports of the Funds and of any other notices,
reports or documents required by law to be delivered to
Contract Owners. Annually, a statement of the Contract Value
is sent to the Contract Owner.
VOTING RIGHTS
The Company shall notify the Contract Owner of any Fund
shareholder's meetings at which the shares held for the
Contract Owner's Account may be voted and shall also send
proxy materials and a form of instruction by means of which
the Contract Owner can instruct the Company with respect to
the voting of the shares held for the Contract Owner's
Account. In connection with the voting of Fund shares held by
it, the Company shall arrange for the handling and tallying of
proxies received from Contract Owners. The Company as such,
shall have no right, except as hereinafter provided, to vote
any Fund shares held by it hereunder which may be registered in
its name or the names of its nominees. The Company will,
however, vote the Fund shares held by it in accordance with
the instructions received from the Contract Owners for whose
Accounts the Fund shares are held. If a Contract Owner desires
to attend any meeting which shares held for the Contract
Owner's benefit may be voted, the Contract Owner may request
the Company to furnish a proxy or otherwise arrange for the
exercise of voting rights with respect to the Fund shares held
for such Contract Owner's Account. In the event that the
Contract Owner gives no instructions or leaves the manner of
voting discretionary, the Company will vote such shares of the
appropriate Fund in the same proportion as shares of that Fund
for which instructions have been received. Also, the Company
will vote the Fund Shares in this proportionate manner which
are held by the Company for its own account. During the
annuity period under a contract the number of votes will
decrease as the assets held to fund annuity benefits decrease.
SUBSTITUTION
The Company reserves the right, subject to compliance with the
law, to substitute the shares of any other registered
investment company for the shares of any Fund held by the
Separate Account. Substitution may occur only if shares of
Fund(s) become unavailable or due to changes in applicable
law or interpretations of law. Current law requires
notification to you of any such substitution and approved
of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
PROOF OF SURVIVAL
The payment of any annuity benefit will be subject to evidence
that the Annuitant is alive on the date such payment is
otherwise due.
VALUATION NET PREMIUM PAYMENTS
PROVISIONS
The net premium payment is equal to the premium payment minus
any applicable Premium Taxes. The net premium payment is
applied to provide Fixed Account values or Sub-Account
Accumulation Units with respect to the Sub-Account(s) selected
by the Contract Owner.
Page 8
<PAGE>
VALUATION
PROVISIONS
(CONTINUED) The number of Accumulation Units credited to each Sub-Account
is determined by dividing the net premium payment allocated to
a Sub-Account by the dollar value of one Accumulation Unit for
such Sub-Account, next computed after the receipt of a premium
payment by the Company. The number of Accumulation Units so
determined will not be affected by any subsequent change in
the value of such Accumulation Units. The Accumulation Unit
value in any Sub-Account may increase or decrease from day to
day as described below.
The Company will determine the value of the Fixed Account by
crediting interest to amounts allocated to the Fixed Account.
The minimum Fixed Account interest rate is the rate shown on
Page 3, compounded annually. The Company, at its discretion,
may credit interest rates greater than the minimum Fixed
Account interest rate.
NET INVESTMENT FACTOR
The net investment factor for each of the Sub-Accounts is
equal to the net asset value per share of the corresponding
Fund at the end of the valuation period (plus the per share
amount of any unpaid dividends or capital gains by that Fund)
divided by the net asset value per share of the corresponding
Fund at the beginning of the valuation period and subtracting
from that amount the mortality and expense risk charge and the
administration charge shown on Page 3. The General Account net
investment factor is guaranteed to be equal to the Minimum
Fixed Account Interest Rate shown on page 3.
ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUE
The Accumulation Unit Value for each Sub-Account will vary to
reflect the investment experience of the applicable Fund and
will be determined on each Valuation Day by multiplying the
Accumulation Unit Value of the particular Sub-Account on the
preceding Valuation Day by the net investment factor for that
Sub-Account for the valuation period then ended. The value of
the Sub-Account on each Valuation Day is then determined by
multiplying the number of Accumulation Units in that Sub-
Account by the Accumulation Unit Value on that Valuation Day.
ANNUITY UNIT VALUE
The value of an Annuity Unit for each Sub-Account of the
Separate Account was fixed at $1.00 on the date Fund shares
were originally purchased for the Sub-Accounts of the Separate
Account, and for any day thereafter is determined by
multiplying the value of the Annuity Unit for that Sub-Account
on the preceding day by the product of (a) the net investment
factor for that Sub-Account for the day for which the Annuity
Unit value is being calculated, and (b) 0.999892.
CONTRACT MAINTENANCE FEE
During each year that this contract is in force prior to the
Annuity Commencement Date, a fee will be deducted from the
contract at the end of the Contract Year or on the date of
surrender of this contract, if earlier. The fee will be
charged against the Contract Value by reducing the Fixed
Account value and, with respect to the Sub-Accounts, the
number of Accumulation Units held on that date on a pro-rata
basis with respect to each active Account.
Page 9
<PAGE>
VALUATION
PROVISIONS
(CONTINUED) The number of Accumulation Units deducted from the Sub-Account
is determined by dividing the pro-rata portion of the Contract
Maintenance Fee applicable to that Sub-Account, by the value
of an Accumulation unit for the Sub-Account at the end of the
Contract Year, or on the date of surrender, as applicable.
TERMINATION TERMINATION PRIOR TO THE ANNUITY COMMENCEMENT DATE
PROVISIONS
FULL SURRENDER
At any time prior to the Annuity Commencement Date, the
Contract Owner has the right to terminate the contract by
submitting a written request to the Home Office of
the Company. In such event, the Termination Value of the
contract may be taken in the form of a cash settlement.
The Termination Value of the contract is equal
to the Contract Value less:
(a) any applicable Premium Taxes not previously deducted;
(b) the Contract Maintenance Fee as specified on Page 3; and
(c) any applicable contingent deferred sales charges as
specified on Page 3.
The Termination Value provided by the contract is not less
than the minimum values required by the insurance laws of the
state in which this contract is issued.
PARTIAL SURRENDERS/ANNUAL WITHDRAWAL PRIVILEGE
The Contract Owner may request, in writing, a partial
surrender of Contract Values at any time prior to the Annuity
Commencement Date provided the Contract Value remaining after
the surrender is at least equal to the Company's minimum
amount rules then in effect. If the remaining Contract Value
following such surrender is less than the Company's minimum
amount rules, the Company will terminate the contract and pay
the Termination Value.
The contingent deferred sales charge will be assessed against
any Contract Values surrendered as described on Page 3.
However, on a noncumulative basis, the Contract Owner may make
partial surrenders during any Contract Year, up to the Annual
Withdrawal Privilege Amount shown on Page 3 and the contingent
deferred sales charge will not be assessed against such
amounts.
Any withdrawal privilege amount surrenders will be deemed to be
from Contract Values other than premium payments. Surrender of
Contract Values in excess of the withdrawal privilege amount
and additional surrenders made in any Contract Year will be
subject to the contingent deferred sales charge, as described
on Page 3, if applicable.
TERMINATION AFTER THE ANNUITY COMMENCEMENT DATE
This contract may not be surrendered for its Termination Value
after the commencement of annuity payments, except with
respect to Option Four.
Page 10
<PAGE>
TERMINATION
PROVISIONS
(CONTINUED) PAYMENT ON SURRENDER - DEFERRAL OF PAYMENT
Payment on any request for surrender will be made as soon as
possible and, with respect to the Contract Values in the Sub-
Accounts, no later than seven days after the written request
is received by the Company. However, such payment may be
subject to postponement:
(a) for any period during which the New York Stock Exchange
is closed or during which trading on the New York Stock
Exchange is restricted;
(b) for any period during which an emergency exists as a
result of which (i) disposal of the securities held in
the Sub-Accounts is not reasonably practicable, or (ii)
it is not reasonably practicable for the value of the
net assets of the Separate Account to be fairly
determined; and
(c) for such other periods as the Securities and Exchange
Commission may, by order, permit for the protection of
the Contract Owners. The conditions under which trading
shall be deemed to be restricted or any emergency shall
be deemed to exist shall be determined by rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Company may defer payment of any amounts from the Fixed
Account for up to six months from the date of the request to
surrender. If the Company defers payment for more than 30 days,
the Company will pay interest of at least 4% per annum on the
amount deferred.
DEATH BENEFIT
If the Annuitant dies before the Annuity Commencement Date and
there is no designated Contingent Annuitant surviving, or if
the Contract Owner dies before the Annuity Commencement Date,
the Death Benefit will be payable to the Beneficiary as
determined under the Contract Control Provisions. With regard
to Joint Contract Owners, at the first death of a joint
Contract Owner prior to the Annuity Commencement Date, the
Beneficiary will be the surviving Contract Owner,
notwithstanding that the Designated Beneficiary may be
different. The Death Benefit is calculated as of the date the
Company receives written notification of Due Proof of Death at
the Home Office of the Company.
If the deceased (the Annuitant or Contract Owner, as
applicable) had not yet attained age 85, the Death Benefit
will be the greatest of the following amounts:
(a) The Contract Value on the date of receipt of Due Proof
of Death at the Home Office of the Company;
(b) The Contract Value on the Specified Contract
Anniversary immediately preceding the date of death,
increased by the dollar amount of any premium payments
made and reduced by the dollar amount of any partial
terminations since the immediately preceding Specified
Contract Anniversary; or
(c) 100% of all premium payments made under the Contract,
reduced by the dollar amount of any partial
terminations since the Date of Issue.
If the deceased (the Annuitant or Contract Owner, as
applicable) had attained age 85, then the Death Benefit will
equal the Contract Value.
Page 11
<PAGE>
TERMINATION The death benefit may be taken in one sum or under any of the
PROVISIONS settlement options then being offered by the Company provided,
(CONTINUED) however, that, in the event of a Contract Owner's death, any
settlement option must provide that any amount payable as a
death benefit will commence upon notification of Due Proof of
Death and be completed within five years of the date of death
or, if the benefit is payable over a period not extending
beyond the life expectancy of the Beneficiary or over the life
of the Beneficiary, such distribution must commence within one
year of the date of death. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in
the event of the Contract Owner's death where the sole
Beneficiary is the spouse of the Contract Owner and the
Annuitant or Contingent Annuitant is living, such spouse may
elect, in lieu of receiving the death benefit, to be treated
as the Contract Owner.
When payment is taken in one sum, payment will be made within
7 days after the date Due Proof of Death is received, except
when the Company is permitted to defer such payment under the
Investment Company Act of 1940.
SETTLEMENT ANNUITY COMMENCEMENT DATE
PROVISIONS
The Annuity Commencement Date is shown on Page 3. This date
may be changed by the Contract Owner with 30 days advance
written notification, and may be the fifteenth day of any month
before or including the month of the Annuitant's 90th
birthday. In the event the Contingent Annuitant becomes the
Annuitant and in the absence of a written election to the
contrary, the Annuity Commencement Date will be the fifteenth
day of the month coincident with or next following the
Annuitant's 90th birthday.
ELECTION OF ANNUITY OPTION
The Contract Owner may elect to have the Termination Value,
without deduction for any contingent deferred sales charge,
applied on the Annuity Commencement Date under any one of the
annuity options described below or under any of the settlement
options then being offered by the Company. The Termination
Value is determined on the basis of the Accumulation Unit
value of each Sub-Account and the value of the Fixed Account
no later than the fifth Valuation Day preceding the date
annuity payments are to commence.
DATE OF PAYMENT
The first payment under any option shall be made on the
fifteenth day of the month immediately following approval of
claim for settlement. Subsequent payments shall be made on the
fifteenth day of each subsequent month in accordance with the
manner of payment selected.
DEATH OF THE ANNUITANT
In the event of the death of the Annuitant while receiving
annuity payments, the present value of any remaining payments
will be paid in one sum to the Beneficiary unless other
provisions shall have been made and approved by the Company.
If the Annuitant was also the Contract Owner, any method of
distribution must provide that any amount payable as a death
benefit will be distributed at least as rapidly as under the
method of distribution in effect at the Contract Owner's
death. In the case of the Separate Account calculations, for
such present value of the remaining payments the Company will
assume a net investment rate of 4% per annum. The Annuity Unit
value on the date of receipt of Due Proof of Death shall be
used for the purpose of determining such present value. In the
case of the General Account the net investment rate assumed
will be the rate used by the Company to determine the amount
of each certain payment.
Page 12
<PAGE>
SETTLEMENT
PROVISIONS
(CONTINUED) ALLOCATION OF ANNUITY
The person electing an annuity option may further elect to
have the value of the contract applied to provide a variable
annuity, a fixed dollar annuity or a combination of both. Once
every 3 months, following the commencement of annuity payments,
the Contract Owner may elect, in writing, to transfer among
any Sub-Account(s) on which variable annuity payments are
based. No transfers may be made between the Sub-Accounts and
the General Account.
If no election is made to the contrary, the value of each Sub-
Account shall be applied to provide a variable annuity based
thereon, and the value of the Fixed Account shall be applied
to provide a fixed dollar annuity.
VARIABLE ANNUITY AND FIXED DOLLAR ANNUITY
VARIABLE ANNUITY - A variable annuity is an annuity with
payments increasing or decreasing in amount in accordance
with the net investment results of the Sub-Account(s) of the
Separate Account (as described in the Valuation Provisions).
After the first monthly payment for a variable annuity has
been determined in accordance with the provisions of this
contract, a number of Sub-Account Annuity Units is determined
by dividing that first monthly payment by the appropriate Sub-
Account Annuity Unit value on the effective date of the
annuity payments. Once variable annuity payments have begun,
the number of Annuity Units remains fixed with respect to a
particular Sub-Account. If the Contract Owner elects that
continuing annuity payments be based on a different
Sub-Account, the number will change effective with that
election but will remain fixed in number following such
election. The method of calculating the unit value is described
under Valuation Provisions.
The dollar amount of the second and subsequent variable
annuity payments is not predetermined and may increase or
decrease from month to month. The actual amount of each
variable annuity payment after the first is determined by
multiplying the number of Sub-Account Annuity Units by the
Sub-Account Annuity Unit value as described in the Valuation
Provisions. The Sub-Account Annuity Unit value will be
determined no earlier than the fifth Valuation Day preceding
the date the annuity payment is due.
The Company guarantees that the dollar amount of variable
annuity payments will not be adversely affected by variations
in the expense results and in the actual mortality experience
of payees from the mortality assumptions, including any age
adjustment, used in determining the first monthly payment.
Fixed Dollar Annuity - A fixed dollar annuity is an annuity
with payments which remain fixed as to dollar amount
throughout the payment period.
ANNUITY OPTIONS
FIRST OPTION - Life Annuity - An annuity payable monthly
during the lifetime of the payee, ceasing with the last
payment due prior to the death of the payee.
SECOND OPTION - Life Annuity with 120, 180 or 240 Monthly
Payments Certain - An annuity providing monthly income to the
payee for a fixed period of 120 months, 180 months, or 240
months (as selected), and for as long thereafter as the
payee shall live.
THIRD OPTION - Joint and Last Survivor Life Annuity - An
annuity payable monthly during the joint lifetime of the payee
and a secondary payee, and thereafter during the remaining
lifetime of the survivor, ceasing with the last payment prior
to the death of the survivor.
Page 13
<PAGE>
SETTLEMENT
PROVISIONS
(CONTINUED) * FOURTH OPTION - Payment for a Designated Period - An amount
payable monthly for the number of years selected which may be
from 5 to 30 years. The remaining balance of proceeds in the
General Account or the Separate Account for any day is equal
to the balance on the previous day decreased by the amount of
any installment paid on that day and the remainder multiplied
by the applicable net investment factor for the day as
described in the valuation provisions. Any surrender out of
this option will be subject to contingent deferred sales
charges, as described on Page 3.
* If this contract is issued to qualify under Section 401, 403,
or 408 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 as amended,
these options shall be available only if the guaranteed
payment period is less than the life expectancy of the
Annuitant at the time the option becomes effective. Such life
expectancy will be computed under the mortality table then in
use by the Company.
In the absence of an election by the Contract Owner, the
Termination Value, without deduction for any contingent
deferred sales charge, will be applied on the Annuity
Commencement Date under the second option to provide a life
annuity with 120 monthly payments certain.
ANNUITY TABLES The attached tables show the minimum dollar amount of the
first monthly payments for each $1,000 applied under the
options. Under the First or Second Options, the amount of each
payment will depend upon the age and sex of the payee at the
time the first payment is due. Under the Third Option, the
amount of each payment will depend upon the sex of both payees
and their ages at the time the first payment is due.
MINIMUM PAYMENT - No election of any options or combination of
options may be made under this contract unless the first
payment for each affected Account would be at least equal to
the minimum payment amount according to Company rules then in
effect. If at any time, payments to be made to any payee from
each Account are or become less than the minimum payment
amount, the Company shall have the right to change the
frequency of payment to such intervals as will result in a
payment at least equal to the minimum. If any amount due would
be less than the minimum payment amount per annum, the Company
may make such other settlement as may be equitable to the
payee.
DESCRIPTION OF TABLES - The tables for the First, Second and
Third Options are based on the 1983a. Individual Annuity
Mortality Table with ages set back one year and an interest
rate of 4% per annum. The table for the Fourth Option is based
on an interest rate of 4% per annum.
For purposes of electing fixed annuity payments, the Contract
Owner may elect any of the tables established and offered by
the Company; provided, however, that no such election may be
changed with respect to any Annuitant following the
commencement of annuity payments.
