Dear Sir or Madam:
This letter is with reference to the Rule 24f-2 Notice for the Security Elite
Benefit Variable Life Insurance Account, File No. 33-77322 of which Security
Benefit Life Insurance Company (hereinafter called "SBL") is the Depositor. Said
Notice is being filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the
purpose of making definite in amount the variable life insurance policies
administered within and by means of Security Varilife Separate Account which
were sold pursuant to an indefinite registration.
I have examined the Articles of Incorporation and bylaws of SBL, minutes of
meetings of its Board of Directors and other records, and other pertinent
provisions of the Kansas insurance laws, together with applicable certificates
of public officials and other documents which I have deemed relevant. Based on
the foregoing, it is my opinion that:
1. SBL is duly organized and validly existing as a mutual life insurance
company under the law of the State of Kansas.
2. Security Varilife Separate Account has been validly created as a Separate
Account in accordance with the pertinent provisions of the insurance laws
of Kansas.
3. SBL has the power, and has validly and legally exercised it, to create and
issue the variable life insurance policies which are administered within
and by means of Security Varilife Separate Account.
4. The amount of variable life insurance policies sold pursuant to the
indefinite registration are fully enforceable in accordance with the terms
by their respective holders providing said contracts were issued for the
consideration set forth therein and evidenced by appropriate policies.
I hereby consent to the inclusion in said Rule 24f-2 Notice of my foregoing
opinion to be filed as Exhibit 1 thereto.
Respectfully submitted,
AMY J. LEE
