SYNOPSIS OF CONTRACT PROVISIONS
This synopsis should be read together with the other information set
forth in this Prospectus. Variations due to requirements particular to your
state are described in this Prospectus, or in your Contract, as appropriate.
The Contracts are designed to provide retirement benefits through the
accumulation of purchase payments on a fixed or variable basis, and by the
application of such accumulations to provide Fixed or Variable Annuity
Payments.
9
<PAGE>
MINIMUM INVESTMENT REQUIREMENTS
Your initial purchase payment must be at least $5,000. The amount of any
subsequent purchase payment that you make must be at least $100. If your
Account Value falls below $500, we may cancel your interest in the Contract
and treat it as a full surrender. We also may transfer funds from a Division
(other than the Money Market Division) or Guarantee Period under your Contract
without charge to the Money Market Division if the Account Value of that
Division or Guarantee Period falls below $500. See "Contract Issuance and
Purchase Payments."
PURCHASE PAYMENT ACCUMULATION
Purchase payments will be accumulated on a variable or fixed basis until
the Annuity Commencement Date. For variable accumulation, you may allocate
part or all of your Account Value to one or more of the fifteen available
Divisions of Separate Account D. Each such Division invests solely in shares
of one of fifteen corresponding Series. See "The Series." As the value of the
investments in a Series' shares increases or decreases, the value of
accumulated purchase payments allocated to the corresponding Division
increases or decreases, subject to applicable charges and deductions. See
"Variable Account Value."
For fixed accumulation, you may allocate part or all of your Account
Value to one or more of the Guarantee Periods available in our Fixed Account
at the time you make your allocation. Each Guarantee Period is for a different
period of time and has a different Guaranteed Interest Rate. While allocated
to a Guarantee Period, the value of accumulated purchase payments increases at
the Guaranteed Interest Rate applicable to that Guarantee Period. See "The
Fixed Account."
Over the lifetime of your Contract, you may allocate part or all of your
Account Value to no more than eighteen Divisions and Guarantee Periods. This
limit includes those Divisions and Guarantee Periods from which you have
either transferred or withdrawn all of your Account Value previously allocated
to such Divisions or Guarantee Periods.
FIXED AND VARIABLE ANNUITY PAYMENTS
You may elect to receive Fixed or Variable Annuity Payments, or a
combination thereof, commencing on the Annuity Commencement Date. Fixed
Annuity Payments are periodic payments from AGL, the amount of which is fixed
and guaranteed by AGL. The amount of the payments will depend on the Annuity
Payment Option chosen, the age and, in some cases, sex of the Annuitant, and
the total amount of Account Value applied to the fixed Annuity Payment Option.
Variable Annuity Payments are similar to Fixed Annuity Payments, except
that the amount of each periodic payment from AGL will vary reflecting the net
investment return of the Division or Divisions chosen in connection with a
variable Annuity Payment Option. If the net investment return for a given
month exceeds the assumed interest rate used in the Contract's annuity tables,
the monthly payment will be greater than the previous payment. If the net
investment return for a month is less than the assumed interest rate, the
monthly payment will be less than the previous payment. The assumed interest
rate used in the Contract's annuity tables is 3.5%. AGL may in the future
offer other forms of the Contract with a lower assumed interest rate, and
reserves the right to discontinue the offering of the higher interest rate
form of Contract. See "Annuity Period and Annuity Payment Options."

CHANGES IN ALLOCATIONS AMONG DIVISIONS AND GUARANTEE PERIODS
Prior to the Annuity Commencement Date, you may modify your election with
respect to the allocation of future purchase payments to each of the various
Divisions and Guarantee Periods, without charge.
In addition, you may reallocate your Account Value among the Divisions
and Guarantee Periods prior to the Annuity Commencement Date. Transfers out of
a Guarantee Period, however, are subject to limitations as to amount. For
these and other terms and conditions of transfer, see "Transfer, Surrender and
Partial Withdrawal of Owner Account Value - Transfers."
After the Annuity Commencement Date, you may make transfers among the
Divisions or to a fixed Annuity Payment Option, but you may not make transfers
from a fixed Annuity Payment Option. See "Annuity Period and Annuity Payment
Options - Transfers."
SURRENDERS, WITHDRAWALS AND CANCELLATIONS
You may make a total surrender of or partial withdrawal from your
Contract at any time prior to the Annuity Commencement Date, by Written
request to us. A Surrender Charge may be assessed and some surrenders and
withdrawals may subject you to tax penalties. See "Surrenders and Partial
Withdrawals."
You may cancel your Contract by delivering it or mailing it with a
Written cancellation request to our Home Office or to the sales representative
through whom it was purchased, before the close of business on the tenth day
after you receive the Contract. (In some cases, the Contract may provide for a
20 or 30-day, rather than a ten-day period.) If the foregoing items are sent
by mail, properly addressed and postage prepaid, they will be deemed to be
received by us on the date actually received.
We will refund to you the Owner Account Value plus any premium taxes and
Annual Contract Fee that have been deducted. In states where the law so
requires, however, we will refund the greater of that amount or the amount of
your purchase payments, or, if the law permits, the amount of your purchase
payments.
DEATH PROCEEDS
In the event that the Annuitant or Owner dies prior to the Annuity
Commencement Date, a benefit is payable to the Beneficiary. See "Death
Proceeds Prior to the Annuity Commencement Date."
LIMITATIONS IMPOSED BY RETIREMENT PLANS AND EMPLOYERS
Certain rights you would otherwise have under a Contract may be limited
by the terms of any applicable employee benefit plan. These limitations may
restrict such things as total and partial surrenders, the amount or timing of
purchase payments that may be made, when annuity payments must start and the
type of annuity options that may be selected. Accordingly, you should
familiarize yourself with these and all other aspects of any retirement plan
in connection with which a Contract is used. We are not responsible for
monitoring or assuring compliance with the provisions of any retirement plan.

<PAGE>
COMMUNICATIONS TO US
All communications to us should include your Contract number, your name
and, if different, the Annuitant's name. Communications may be directed to the
addresses and phone numbers on the cover of this Prospectus.
Except as otherwise specified in this Prospectus, purchase payments or
other communications are deemed received at our Home Office on the actual date
of receipt there in proper form unless received (1) after the close of regular
trading on The New York Stock Exchange or (2) on a date that is not a
Valuation Date. In either of these two cases, the date of receipt will be
deemed to be the next Valuation Date.
PERFORMANCE INFORMATION
From time to time, Separate Account D may include in advertisements and
other sales materials several types of performance information for the
Divisions, including "average annual total return," "total return," and
"cumulative total return." The Domestic Income Division, the Government
Division, and the Growth and Income Division may also advertise "yield." The
Money Market Division may advertise "yield" and "effective yield."
The performance information that may be presented is not an estimate or
guarantee of future investment performance and does not represent the actual
experience of amounts invested by a particular Owner. Additional information
concerning a Division's performance appears in the Statement.
TOTAL RETURN AND YIELD QUOTATIONS. Average annual total return, total
return, and cumulative total return calculations measure the net income of a
Division plus the effect of any realized or unrealized appreciation or
depreciation of the underlying investments in the Division for the period in
question. Average annual total return figures are annualized and, therefore,
represent the average annual percentage change in the value of an investment
in a Division over the applicable period. Total return figures are also
annualized, but do not, as described below, include the effect of any
applicable Surrender Charge or Annual Contract Fee. Cumulative total return
figures represent the cumulative change in value of an investment in a
Division for various periods.
Yield is a measure of the net dividend and interest income earned over a
specific one month or 30-day period (seven-day period for the Money Market
Division) expressed as a percentage of the value of the Division's
Accumulation Units. Yield is an annualized figure, which means that it is
assumed that the Division generates the same level of net income over a one
year period which is compounded on a semi-annual basis. The effective yield
for the Money Market Division is calculated similarly but includes the effect
of assumed compounding. The Money Market Division's effective yield will be
slightly higher than its yield due to this compounding effect.
Average annual total return figures include the deduction of all
recurring charges and fees applicable under the Contract to all Owner
accounts, including the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge, the Administrative
Expense Charge, the applicable Surrender Charge that may be imposed at the end
of the period in question, and a pro-rated portion of the Annual Contract Fee.
Yield, effective yield, total return, and cumulative total return figures do
not include the effect of any
12
<PAGE>
Surrender Charge that may be imposed upon the redemption of Accumulation
Units, and thus may be higher than if such charge were deducted. Total return
and cumulative total return figures also do not include the effect of the
Annual Contract Fee.
DIVISION PERFORMANCE. The investment performance for each Division that
invests in a corresponding Series of the Trust will generally reflect the
investment performance of that corresponding Series for the periods stated.
This information appears in the Statement. For periods prior to the date the
Contracts became available, the performance information for a Division will be
calculated on a hypothetical basis by applying current Separate Account fees
and charges under the Contract to the historical performance of the
corresponding Series. We may waive or reimburse certain fees or charges
applicable to the Contract and such waivers or reimbursements will affect each
Divisions's performance results.
Information about the experience of the investment advisers to the Series
of the Fund appears in the prospectus for the Fund.
FINANCIAL RATINGS
AGL may also advertise its ratings by independent financial rating
services, such as A.M. Best Company, Standard & Poor's, and Duff & Phelps.
Best's Insurance Reports, Life-Health Edition, 1996 reaffirmed AGL's rating of
A++ (Superior) as of June, 1996 for financial position and operating
performance. AGL has received the highest rating of AAA (Superior) from
Standard & Poor's Corporation, reaffirmed as of November, 1996, and the
highest rating of AAA from Duff & Phelps Credit Rating Co., reaffirmed as of
August, 1996. The ratings from these three nationally recognized rating
organizations reflect the claims paying ability and financial strength of AGL
and are not a rating of investment performance that purchasers of insurance
products have experienced or are likely to experience in the future.
OTHER INFORMATION
In addition, AGL may include in certain advertisements endorsements in
the form of a list of organizations, individuals or other parties that
recommend the Company or the Contracts. AGL may occasionally include in
advertisements comparisons of currently taxable and tax-deferred investment
programs, based on selected tax brackets, or discussions of alternative
investment vehicles and general economic conditions.
FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The financial statements of AGL are located in the Statement. See the
cover page of the Prospectus for information on how to obtain a copy of the
Statement. The financial statements of AGL should be considered only as
bearing on the ability of AGL to meet its contractual obligations under the
Contracts; they do not bear on the investment performance of Separate Account
D.
Financial statements of AGL and Separate Account D, including financial
information about the Divisions which invest in the Series of the Trust are
included in the Statement. See "Contents of Statement of Additional
Information."
13
<PAGE>
AGL
AGL is a stock life insurance company organized under the laws of the
State of Texas, which is a successor in interest to a company originally
organized under the laws of the State of Delaware in 1917. AGL is an indirect,
wholly-owned subsidiary of American General Corporation (formerly American
General Insurance Company), a diversified financial services holding company
engaged primarily in the insurance business. The commitments under the
Contracts are AGL's, and American General Corporation has no legal obligation
to back those commitments.
SEPARATE ACCOUNT D
Separate Account D was originally established on November 19, 1973 and
consists of thirty-seven Divisions, fifteen of which are available under the
Contracts offered by this Prospectus. Separate Account D is registered with
the Securities and Exchange Commission as a unit investment trust under the
1940 Act.
Each Division of Separate Account D is part of AGL's general business and
the assets of Separate Account D belong to AGL. Under Texas law and the terms
of the Contracts, the assets of Separate Account D will not be chargeable with
liabilities arising out of any other business which AGL may conduct, but will
be held exclusively to meet AGL's obligations under variable annuity
contracts. Furthermore, the income, gains, and losses, whether or not
realized, from assets allocated to Separate Account D, are, in accordance with
the Contracts, credited to or charged against the Separate Account without
regard to other income, gains, or losses of AGL.
THE SERIES
The variable benefits under the Contracts are funded by fifteen Divisions
of the Separate Account. These Divisions invest in shares of six separate
investment Series of the Trust and nine separate Series of the Fund. The Trust
and the Fund offer shares of these Series, without sales charges, exclusively
to insurance company variable annuity and variable life insurance separate
accounts and not directly to the public. The Trust and the Fund offer shares
to variable annuity and variable life insurance separate accounts of insurers
that are not affiliated with AGL. We do not see any conflict between Owners of
Contracts and owners of variable life insurance policies or variable annuity
contracts issued by insurance companies not affiliated with AGL. Nevertheless,
the Board of Trustees of the Trust and the Board of Directors of the Fund will
monitor to identify any material irreconcilable conflicts that may develop and
determine what, if any, action should be taken in response. If it becomes
necessary for any separate account to replace shares of any Series with
another investment, the Series may have to liquidate securities on a
disadvantageous basis.
Any dividends or capital gain distributions attributable to Contracts are
automatically reinvested in shares of the Series from which they are received
at the Series' net asset value on the date payable. Such dividends and
distributions will have the effect of reducing the net asset value of each
share of the corresponding Series and increasing, by an equivalent value, the
number of shares outstanding of the Series. However, the value of your
interest in the corresponding Division will not change as a result of any such
dividends and distributions.

Before selecting any Division, you should carefully read the prospectus
that includes more complete information about the Series in which that
Division invests, including investment objectives and policies, charges and
expenses. You can find information about the investment performance of the
Series of the Trust in the Statement and information about the experience of
the investment advisers to the Series of the Fund in the prospectus for the
Fund. You may obtain additional copies of such a prospectus by contacting
AGL's Annuity Administration Department at the addresses and
15
<PAGE>
phone number set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus. When making your
request, please specify the single or the several Series in which you are
interested.
High yielding fixed-income securities such as those in which the Domestic
Income Portfolio invests are subject to greater market fluctuations and risk
of loss of income and principal than investments in lower yielding
fixed-income securities. Potential investors in this Division should carefully
read the prospectus and related statement of additional information that
pertains to this Series and consider their ability to assume the risks of
making an investment in this Division.
VOTING PRIVILEGES
The Owner prior to the Annuity Commencement Date and the Annuitant or
other payee during the Annuity Period will be entitled to give us instructions
as to how Series shares held in the Divisions of Separate Account D
attributable to their Contract should be voted at meetings of shareholders of
the Series. Those persons entitled to give voting instructions and the number
of votes for which they may give directions will be determined as of the
record date for a meeting. Separate Account D will vote all shares of each
Series that it holds of record in accordance with instructions received with
respect to all AGL annuity contracts participating in that Series.
Separate Account D will also vote all shares of each Series for which no
instructions have been received for or against any proposition in the same
proportion as the shares for which voting instructions were received.
Prior to the Annuity Commencement Date, the number of votes each Owner is
entitled to direct with respect to a particular Series is equal to (a) the
Owner's Variable Account Value attri butable to that Series divided by (b) the
net asset value of one share of that Series. In determining the number of
votes, fractional votes will be recognized. While a variable Annuity Payment
Option is in effect, the number of votes an Annuitant or payee is entitled to
direct with respect to a particular Series will be computed in a comparable
manner, based on our liability for future Variable Annuity Payments with
respect to that Annuitant or payee as of the record date. Such liability for
future payments will be calculated on the basis of the mortality assumptions
and the assumed interest rate used in determining the number of Annuity Units
under a Contract and the applicable value of an Annuity Unit on the record
date.
Series shares held by insurance company separate accounts other than
Separate Account D will generally be voted in accordance with instructions of
participants in such other separate accounts.
We believe that AGL's voting instruction procedures comply with current
federal securities law requirements and interpretations thereof. However, AGL
reserves the right to modify these procedures in any manner consistent with
applicable legal requirements and interpretations as in effect from time to
time.

THE FIXED ACCOUNT
AMOUNTS IN THE FIXED ACCOUNT OR SUPPORTING FIXED ANNUITY PAYMENTS BECOME
PART OF OUR GENERAL ACCOUNT. BECAUSE OF EXEMPTIVE AND EXCLUSIONARY PROVISIONS,
INTERESTS IN THE GENERAL ACCOUNT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES
ACT OF 1933, NOR IS THE GENERAL ACCOUNT REGISTERED AS AN INVESTMENT COMPANY
UNDER THE 1940 ACT. WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED THAT THE STAFF OF THE SECURITIES AND
EXCHANGE COMMISSION HAS NOT REVIEWED THE DISCLOSURES IN THIS
16
<PAGE>
PROSPECTUS THAT RELATE TO THE FIXED ACCOUNT OR FIXED ANNUITY PAYMENTS.
DISCLOSURES REGARDING THESE MATTERS, HOWEVER, MAY BE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN
GENERALLY-APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF THE FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS RELATING TO THE
ACCURACY AND COMPLETENESS OF STATEMENTS IN PROSPECTUSES.
Our obligations with respect to the Fixed Account are legal obligations
of AGL and are supported by our General Account assets, which also support
obligations incurred by us under other insurance and annuity contracts.
Investments purchased with amounts allocated to the Fixed Account are the
property of AGL, and Owners have no legal rights in such investments.
Account Value that is allocated by the Owner to the Fixed Account earns a
Guaranteed Interest Rate commencing with the date of such allocation. This
Guaranteed Interest Rate continues for a number of years selected by the Owner
from among the Guarantee Periods that we then offer. At the end of a Guarantee
Period, the Owner's Account Value in that Guarantee Period, including interest
accrued thereon, will be allocated to a new Guarantee Period of the same
length unless AGL has received a Written request from the Owner to allocate
this amount to a different Guarantee Period or Periods or to one or more of
the Divisions of Separate Account D. We must receive this Written request at
least three business days prior to the end of the Guarantee Period. If the
Owner has not provided such Written request and the renewed Guarantee Period
extends beyond the scheduled Annuity Commencement Date, we will nevertheless
contact the Owner regarding the scheduled Annuity Commencement Date. If the
Owner elects to annuitize in this circumstance, the Surrender Charge may be
waived. (See "Annuity Payment Options" and "Surrender Charge.") The first day
of the new Guarantee Period (or other reallocation) will be the day after the
end of the prior Guaran tee Period. We will notify the Owner at least 30 days
and not more than 60 days prior to the end of any Guarantee Period. If the
Owner's Account Value in a Guarantee Period is less than $500, we reserve the
right to automatically transfer without charge, the balance to the Money
Market Division at the end of that Guarantee Period, unless we have received
in good order Written instructions to transfer such balance to a different
Division.
We declare the Guaranteed Interest Rates from time to time as market
conditions dictate. We advise an Owner of the Guaranteed Interest Rate for a
chosen Guarantee Period at the time a pur chase payment is received, a
transfer is effectuated or a Guarantee Period is renewed. A different rate of
interest may be credited to one Guarantee Period than to another Guarantee
Period that is the same length but that began on a different date. The minimum
Guaranteed Interest Rate is an effective annual rate of 3%.
Each Guarantee Period has its own Guaranteed Interest Rate, which may
differ from those for other Guarantee Periods. From time to time we will, at
our discretion, change the Guaranteed Interest Rate for future Guarantee
Periods of various lengths. These changes will not affect the Guaranteed
Interest Rates being paid on Guarantee Periods that have already commenced.
Each allocation or transfer of an amount to a Guarantee Period commences the
running of a new
17
<PAGE>
Guarantee Period with respect to that amount, which will earn a Guaranteed
Interest Rate that will continue unchanged until the end of that Period. The
Guaranteed Interest Rate will never be less than the minimum Guaranteed
Interest Rate stated in your Contract. Currently we make available a one year
Guarantee Period, and no others. However we reserve the right to change the
Guarantee Periods that we are making available at any time.
AGL'S MANAGEMENT MAKES THE FINAL DETERMINATION OF THE GUARANTEED INTEREST
RATES TO BE DECLARED. AGL CANNOT PREDICT OR ASSURE THE LEVEL OF ANY FUTURE
GUARANTEED INTEREST RATES IN EXCESS OF THE MINIMUM GUARANTEED INTEREST RATE
STATED IN YOUR CONTRACT.
Information concerning the Guaranteed Interest Rates applicable to the
various Guarantee Periods at any time may be obtained from your sales
representative or from the addresses or phone numbers set forth on the cover
page of this Prospectus.
CONTRACT ISSUANCE AND PURCHASE PAYMENTS
The minimum initial purchase payment is $5,000. The amount of any
subsequent purchase payment allocated to any Division or Guarantee Period must
be at least $100. We reserve the right to modify these minimums, in our
discretion.
An application to purchase a Contract must be made by signed Written
application form provided by AGL or by such other medium or format as may be
agreed to by AGL and Van Kampen American Capital Distributors, Inc. as
distributor of the Contracts. When a purchase payment accompanies an
application to purchase a Contract and the application is properly completed,
we will either process the application, credit the purchase payment, and issue
the Contract or reject the application and return the purchase payment within
two Valuation Dates after receipt of the application at our Home Office.
If the application is not complete or is incorrectly completed, we will
request additional documents or information within five Valuation Dates after
receipt of the application at our Home Office. If a correctly-completed
application is not received within five Valuation Dates after receipt of the
purchase payment at our Home Office, we will return the purchase payment
immediately unless the prospective purchaser specifically consents to our
retaining the purchase payment until the application is made complete, in
which case the initial purchase payment is credited as of the end of the
Valuation Period in which we receive at our Home Office the last information
required to process the application. Subsequent purchase payments are credited
as of the end of the Valuation Period in which they and any required Written
identifying information, are received at our Home Office. We reserve the right
to reject any application or purchase payment for any reason.
If the Owner's Account Value in any Division falls below $500 because of
a partial withdrawal from the Contract, we reserve the right to transfer,
without charge, the remaining balance to the Money Market Division. If the
Owner's Account value in any Division falls below $500 because of a transfer
to another Division or to the Fixed Account, we reserve the right to transfer
the remaining balance in that Division, without charge and pro rata, to the
Division, Divisions or Fixed Account to which the transfer was made. These
minimum requirements are waived for transfers under the Automatic Rebalancing
program. See "Automatic Rebalancing." If the Owner's total Account Value falls
below $500, we may cancel the Contract. Such a cancellation would be
considered a full surrender of the Contract. We will provide you with 60 days'
advance notice of any such cancellation.
So long as the Account Value does not fall below $500, you need make no
further purchase payments. You may, however, elect to make subsequent purchase
payments at any time prior to the Annuity Commencement Date and while the
Owner and Annuitant are still living. Checks for
18
<PAGE>
subsequent purchase payments should be made payable to American General Life
Insurance Company and forwarded directly to our Home Office. We also accept
purchase payments by wire or by exchange from another insurance company. You
may obtain further information about how to make purchase payments by either
of these methods from your sales representative or from us at the addresses
and telephone numbers on the cover page of this Prospectus. Purchase payments
pursuant to salary reduction plans may be made only with our agreement.
Your purchase payments begin to earn a return in the Divisions of
Separate Account D or the Guarantee Periods of the Fixed Account as of the
date we credit the purchase payments to your Contract. In your application
form, you select (in whole percentages) the amount of each purchase payment
that is to be allocated to each Division and each Guarantee Period. You can
change these allocation percentages at any time by Written notice to us.
OWNER ACCOUNT VALUE
Prior to the Annuity Commencement Date, your Account Value under a
Contract is the sum of your Variable Account Value and Fixed Account Value, as
discussed below.
VARIABLE ACCOUNT VALUE
Your Variable Account Value as of any Valuation Date prior to the Annuity
Commencement Date is the sum of your Variable Account Values in each Division
of Separate Account D as of that date. Your Variable Account Value in any such
Division is the product of the number of your Accumulation Units in that
Division multiplied by the value of one such Accumulation Unit as of that
Valuation Date. There is no guaranteed minimum Variable Account Value. To the
extent that your Account Value is allocated to Separate Account D, you bear
the entire risk of investment losses.
Accumulation Units in a Division are credited to you when you allocate
purchase payments or transferred amounts to that Division. Similarly, such
Accumulation Units are canceled to the extent you transfer or withdraw amounts
from a Division or to the extent necessary to pay certain charges under the
Contract. The crediting or cancellation of Accumulation Units is based on the
value of such Accumulation Units at the end of the Valuation Date as of which
the related amounts are being credited to or charged against your Variable
Account Value, as the case may be.
The value of an Accumulation Unit for a Division on any Valuation Date is
equal to the previous value of that Division's Accumulation Unit multiplied by
that Division's net investment factor for the Valuation Period ending on that
Valuation Date.
The net investment factor for a Division is determined by dividing (1)
the net asset value per share of the Series shares held by the Division,
determined at the end of the current Valuation Period, plus the per share
amount of any dividend or capital gains distribution made with respect to the
Series shares held by the Division during the current Valuation Period, by (2)
the net asset value per share of the Series shares held in the Division as
determined at the end of the previous Valuation Period, and subtracting from
that result a factor representing the mortality risk, expense risk and
administrative expense charge.
19
<PAGE>
FIXED ACCOUNT VALUE
Your Fixed Account Value as of any Valuation Date prior to the Annuity
Commencement Date is the sum of your Fixed Account Value in each Guarantee
Period as of that date. Your Fixed Account Value in any Guarantee Period is
equal to the following amounts, in each case increased by accrued interest at
the applicable Guaranteed Interest Rate: (1) the amount of net purchase
payments, renewals and transferred amounts allocated to the Guarantee Period
less (2) the amount of any transfers or withdrawals out of the Guarantee
Period, including withdrawals to pay applicable charges.
The Fixed Account Value is guaranteed by AGL. Therefore, AGL bears the
investment risk with respect to amounts allocated to the Fixed Account, except
to the extent that AGL may vary the Guaranteed Interest Rate for future
Guarantee Periods (subject to the minimum Guaranteed Interest Rate stated in
your Contract).
TRANSFER, AUTOMATIC REBALANCING, SURRENDER AND PARTIAL
WITHDRAWAL OF OWNER ACCOUNT VALUE
TRANSFERS
Commencing 30 days after the Contract's date of issue and prior to the
Annuity Commence ment Date, you may transfer your Account Value at any time
among the available Divisions of Separate Account D and Guarantee Periods,
subject to the conditions described below. Such transfers will be effective at
the end of the Valuation Period in which we receive your Written or telephone
transfer request.
If a transfer would cause your Account Value in any Division or Guarantee
Period to fall below $500, we reserve the right to also transfer the remaining
balance in that Division or Guarantee Period in the same proportions as the
transfer request.
Prior to the Annuity Commencement Date and after the first 30 days
following the date the Contract was issued, you may make up to twelve
transfers each Contact Year without charge, but additional transfers will be
subject to a $25 charge. Also, no more than 25% of the Account Value you
allocated to a Guarantee Period at its inception may be transferred during any
Contract Year. This 25% limitation does not apply to transfers from the
one-year Guarantee Period, to transfers within 15 days before or after the end
of the Guarantee Period in which the transferred amounts were being held or to
a renewal at the end of the Guarantee Period to the same Guarantee Period.
Subject to the above general rules concerning transfers, you may
establish an automatic transfer plan, whereby amounts are automatically
transferred by us from the Money Market Division or the one-year Guarantee
Period to one or more other Divisions or Guarantee Periods (if available) on a
monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis. Transfers under such
automatic transfer plan will not count towards the twelve free transfers each
Contract Year, and will not incur a $25 charge. You may obtain additional
information about how to establish an automatic transfer program from your
sales representative or from us at the telephone numbers and addresses on the
front cover of this Prospectus.
20
<PAGE>
If the person or persons that are entitled to make transfers have
provided a Written request for the Telephone Transfer Privilege form that is
on file with us, transfers may be made pursuant to telephone instructions,
subject to the terms of the Telephone Transfer Privilege authorization. We
will honor telephone transfer instructions from any person who provides the
correct information, so there is a risk of possible loss to you if
unauthorized persons use this service in your name. Currently we attempt to
limit the availability of telephone transfer instructions only to the Owner of
the Contract for which instruction is received. Under the Telephone Transfer
Privilege we are not liable for any acts or omissions based upon instructions
that we reasonably believe to be genuine, including losses arising from errors
in the communication of transfer instructions. We have established procedures
for accepting telephone transfer instructions, which include verification of
the Contract number, the identity of the caller, both the Annuitant's and
Owner's names, and a form of personal identification from the caller. We will
mail to the Owner a written confirmation of the transaction. If several
persons seek to effect telephone transfers at or about the same time, or if
our recording equipment malfunctions, it may be impossible for you to make a
telephone transfer at the time you wish. If this occurs, you should submit a
Written transfer request. Also, if, due to malfunction or other circumstances,
the recording of your telephone request is incomplete or not fully
comprehensible, we will not process the transaction. The phone number for
telephone exchanges is 1-800-200-3883.
The Contracts are not designed for professional market timing organizations or
other entities utilizing programmed and frequent transfers. We reserve the
right at any time and without prior notice to any party to terminate, suspend,
or modify our policy regarding transfers.
AUTOMATIC REBALANCING
Automatic Rebalancing within the Separate Account is available for
Contracts with an Account Value of $25,000 and larger at the time the
application for Automatic Rebalancing is received. Application for Automatic
Rebalancing can be made either at issue or after issue, and may subsequently
be discontinued.
Automatic Rebalancing occurs when funds are transferred by us among the
Separate Account Divisions so that the values in each Division match the
Owner's percentage allocation for Automatic Rebalancing then in effect.
Automatic Rebalancing is available on a quarterly, semi-annual or annual
basis, measured from the Contract Anniversary date. A Contract Anniversary
date which falls on the 29th, 30th, or 31st of the month will result in
Automatic Rebalancing as of the 1st of the next month. Automatic Rebalancing
does not permit transfers to or from any Guarantee Period. Transfers under
Automatic Rebalancing will not count towards the twelve free transfers each
Contract Year, and will not incur a $25 charge.
SURRENDERS AND PARTIAL WITHDRAWALS
At any time prior to the Annuity Commencement Date and while the
Annuitant is still living, the Owner may make a full surrender of or partial
withdrawal from his or her Contract.
The amount payable to the Owner upon full surrender is the Owner's
Account Value at the end of the Valuation Period in which we receive a Written
surrender request in good order, minus any applicable Surrender Charge, minus
the amount of any uncollected Contract Fee (see "Annual Contract Fee") and
minus any applicable premium tax. Our current practice is to require that you
return the Contract with any request for a full surrender. After a full
surrender, or if the Owner's
21
<PAGE>
Account Value falls to zero, all rights of the Owner, Annuitant or any other
person with respect to the Contract will terminate, subject to a right to
reinstate the Contract. (See "One-Time Reinstatement Privilege.") All
collateral assignees of record must consent to any full surrender or partial
withdrawal.
Your Written request for a partial withdrawal should specify the
Divisions of Separate Account D, or the Guarantee Periods of the Fixed
Account, from which you wish the partial withdrawal to be made. If you do not
specify, or if the withdrawal cannot be made in accordance with your
specification, to the extent necessary the withdrawal will be taken pro-rata
from the Divisions and Guarantee Periods, based on your Account Value in each.
Partial withdrawal requests must be for at least $100 or, if less, all of your
Account Value. If your remaining Account Value in a Division or Guarantee
Period would be less than $500 as a result of the withdrawal (except for the
Money Market Division), we reserve the right to transfer, without charge, the
remaining balance to the Money Market Division. Unless you request otherwise,
upon a partial withdrawal, your Accumulation Units and Fixed Account interests
that are cancelled will have a total value equal to the amount of the
withdrawal request, and the amount payable to you will be the amount of the
withdrawal request less any Surrender Charge, and premium tax if applicable,
payable upon the partial withdrawal.
We also make available a systematic withdrawal plan under which you may
make automatic partial withdrawals at periodic intervals in a specified
amount, subject to the terms and conditions applicable to other partial
withdrawals. Additional information about how to establish such a systematic
withdrawal program may be obtained from your sales representative or from us
at the addresses and phone numbers set forth on the cover page of this
Prospectus. We reserve the right to modify or terminate our procedures for
systematic withdrawals at any time.
The Code provides that a penalty tax will be imposed on certain premature
surrenders or withdrawals. For a discussion of this and other tax implications
of total surrenders and systematic and other partial withdrawals, including
withholding requirements, see "Federal Income Tax Matters."
ANNUITY PERIOD AND ANNUITY PAYMENT OPTIONS
ANNUITY COMMENCEMENT DATE
The Owner may select the Annuity Commencement Date when applying to
purchase a Contract and may change a previously-selected date at any time
prior to the beginning of an Annuity Payment Option by submitting a Written
request, subject to Company approval. The Annuity Commencement Date may be any
day of any month up to the Annuitant's one hundredth birthday inclusive.
(Pennsylvania has special limitations which may require the Annuity
Commencement Date to be as early as age 85 but in no event beyond age 90.) See
"Federal Income Tax Matters" for a description of the penalties that may
attach to distributions prior to the Annuitant's attaining age 59 1/2 under
any Contract or after April 1 of the year following the calendar year in which
the Annuitant attains age 70 1/2 under Qualified Contracts.
22
<PAGE>
APPLICATION OF OWNER ACCOUNT VALUE
We will automatically apply your Variable Account Value in any Division
to provide Variable Annuity Payments based on that Division and your Fixed
Account Value to provide Fixed Annuity Payments. However, if you give us other
Written instructions at least thirty days prior to the Annuity Commencement
Date, we will apply your Account Value in different proportions.
We deduct any applicable state and local premium taxes from the amount of
Account Value being applied to an Annuity Payment Option. In some cases, we
may deduct a Surrender Charge from the amount being applied. See "Surrender
Charge." Subject to any such adjustments, your Variable and Fixed Account
Value are applied to an Annuity Payment Option, as discussed below, as of the
end of the Valuation Period that contains the tenth day prior to the Annuity
Commencement Date.
FIXED AND VARIABLE ANNUITY PAYMENTS
The amount of the first monthly Fixed or Variable Annuity Payment will be
at least as favorable as that produced by the annuity tables set forth in the
Contract, based on the amount of your Account Value that is applied to provide
the Fixed or Variable Annuity Payments. Thereafter, the amount of each monthly
Fixed Annuity Payment is fixed and specified by the terms of the Annuity
Payment Option selected.
The Account Value that is applied to provide Variable Annuity Payments is
converted to a number of Annuity Units by dividing the amount of the first
Variable Annuity Payment by the value of an Annuity Unit of the relevant
Division as of the end of the Valuation Period that includes the tenth day
prior to the Annuity Commencement Date. This number of Annuity Units
thereafter remains constant with respect to any Annuitant, and the amount of
each subsequent Variable Annuity Payment is determined by multiplying this
number by the value of an Annuity Unit as of the end of the Valuation Period
that contains the tenth day prior to the date of each payment. If the Variable
Annuity Payments are based on more than one Division, these calculations are
performed separately for each Division. The value of an Annuity Unit at the
end of a Valuation Period is the value of the Annuity Unit at the end of the
previous Valuation Period, multiplied by the net investment factor (see
"Variable Account Value") for the Valuation Period, with an offset for the
3.5% assumed interest rate used in the Contract's annuity tables.
As a result of the foregoing computations, if the net investment return
for a Division for any month is at an annual rate of more than the assumed
interest rate used in the Contract's annuity tables, any Variable Annuity
Payment based on that Division will be greater than the Variable Annuity
Payment based on that Division for the previous month. If the net investment
return for a Division for any month is at an annual rate of less than the
assumed interest rate used in the Contract's annuity tables, any Variable
Annuity Payment based on that Division will be less than the Variable Annuity
Payment based on that Division for the previous month.
ANNUITY PAYMENT OPTIONS
The Owner may elect to have annuity payments made beginning on the
Annuity Commence ment Date under any one of the Annuity Payment Options
described below. We will notify the Owner 60 to 90 days prior to the scheduled
Annuity Commencement Date that the Contract is scheduled to mature, and
request that an Annuity Payment Option be selected. If the Owner has not
selected an Annuity Payment Option ten days prior to the Annuity Commencement
Date, we will
23
<PAGE>
proceed as follows: (1) if the scheduled Annuity Commencement Date is any date
prior to the Annuitant's one hundredth birthday, we will extend the Annuity
Commencement Date to the Annuitant's one hundredth birthday; or (2) if the
scheduled Annuity Commencement Date is the Annuitant's one hundredth birthday,
the Account Value less any applicable charges and premium taxes will be paid
in one sum to the Owner. This procedure is different in Pennsylvania because
the Annuity Commencement Date cannot exceed age 90.
The Code imposes minimum distribution requirements that have a bearing on
the Annuity Payment Option that should be chosen in connection with Qualified
Contracts. See "Federal Income Tax Matters." We are not responsible for
monitoring or advising Owners as to whether the minimum distribution
requirements are being met, unless we have received a specific Written request
to do so.
No election of any Annuity Payment Option may be made unless an initial
annuity payment of at least $100 would be provided, where only a Fixed or only
Variable Annuity Payments are elected, and $50 on each basis when a
combination of Variable and Fixed Annuity Payments is elected. If these
minimums are not met, we will first reduce the frequency of annuity payments,
and if the minimums are still not met, we will make a lump-sum payment to the
Annuitant or other properly-designated payee in the amount of the Owner's
Account Value, less any applicable Surrender Charge, any uncollected Annual
Contract Fee, and any applicable premium tax.
The Owner, or if the Owner has not done so, the Beneficiary may, within
60 days after the death of the Owner or Annuitant, elect that any amount due
to the Beneficiary be applied under any option described below, subject to
certain tax law requirements. See "Death Proceeds." Thereafter, the
Beneficiary will have all the remaining rights and powers under the Contract
and be subject to all the terms and conditions thereof. The first annuity
payment will be made at the beginning of the second month following the month
in which we approve the settlement request. Annuity Units will be credited
based on Annuity Unit Values at the end of the Valuation Period that contains
the tenth day prior to the beginning of said second month.
When an Annuity Payment Option becomes effective, the Contract must be
delivered to our Home Office, in exchange for a payment contract providing for
the option elected.
Information about the relationship between the Annuitant's sex and the
amount of annuity payments, including requirements for gender-neutral annuity
rates in certain states and in connection with certain employee benefit plans
is set forth under "Gender of Annuitant" in the Statement. See "Contents of
Statement of Additional Information."
OPTION 1 - LIFE ANNUITY - Annuity payments are payable monthly during the
lifetime of the Annuitant, ceasing with the last payment due prior to the
death of the Annuitant. It would be possible under this arrangement for the
Annuitant or other payee to receive only one annuity payment if the Annuitant
died prior to the second annuity payment, since no minimum number of payments
is guaranteed.
OPTION 2 - LIFE ANNUITY WITH 120, 180, OR 240 MONTHLY PAYMENTS CERTAIN -
Annuity payments are payable monthly during the lifetime of an Annuitant;
provided, that if the Annuitant dies during the period certain, the
Beneficiary is entitled to receive monthly payments for the remainder of the
period certain.
24
<PAGE>
OPTION 3 - JOINT AND LAST SURVIVOR LIFE ANNUITY - Annuity payments are payable
monthly during the lifetime of the Annuitant and another payee and continue
during the lifetime of the survivor, ceasing with the last payment prior to
the death of the survivor. It is possible under this option for the Annuitant
or other payee to receive only one annuity payment if both die before the
second annuity payment, since no minimum number of payments is guaranteed. If
one of these persons dies before the Annuity Commencement Date, the election
of this option is revoked, the survivor becomes the sole Annuitant, and no
death proceeds are payable by virtue of the death of the other Annuitant.
OPTION 4 - PAYMENTS FOR DESIGNATED PERIOD - Annuity payments are payable
monthly to an Annuitant or other properly-designated payee, or at his or her
death, the Beneficiary, for a selected number of years ranging from five to
forty. If this option is selected on a variable basis, the designated period
may not exceed the life expectancy of such Annuitant or other
properly-designated payee.
OPTION 5 - PAYMENTS OF A SPECIFIC DOLLAR AMOUNT - The amount due is paid in
equal monthly installments of a designated dollar amount (not less than $125
nor more than $200 per annum per $1,000 of the original amount due) until the
remaining balance is less than the amount of one installment. If the person
receiving these payments dies, the remaining payments continue to be made to
the Beneficiary. Payments under this option are available on a fixed basis
only. To determine the remaining balance at the end of any month, such balance
at the end of the previous month is decreased by the amount of any installment
paid during the month and the result will be accumulated at an interest rate
not less than 3.5% compounded annually. If the remaining balance at any time
is less than the amount of one installment, such balance will be paid and will
be the final payment under the option.
Under the fourth option there is no mortality guarantee by us, even
though Variable Annuity Payments will be reduced as a result of a charge to
Separate Account D which is partially for mortality risks. See "Charge to
Separate Account D."
A payee receiving Variable (but not Fixed) Annuity Payments under the
fourth option can elect at any time to commute (terminate) such option and
receive the current value of the annuity, which would be based on the values
next determined after the Written request for payment is received by us. The
current value of the annuity under the fourth option is the value of all
remaining annuity payments, assumed to be level, discounted to present value
at an annual rate of 3.5%. Other than by election of such a lump-sum payment
under the fourth option, an Annuity Payment Option may not be terminated once
annuity payments have commenced.
Under federal tax regulations, the election of the fourth or fifth
options may be treated in the same manner as a surrender of the total account.
For tax consequences of such treatment, see "Federal Income Tax Matters."
Also, in such a case, tax-deferred treatment of subsequent earnings may not be
available.
ALTERNATIVE AMOUNT UNDER FIXED LIFE ANNUITY OPTIONS - Each Contract
provides that when Fixed Annuity Payments are to be made under one of the
first three Annuity Payment Options described above, the Owner (or if the
Owner has not elected a payment option, the Beneficiary) may elect monthly
payments to the Annuitant or other properly-designated payee equal to the
monthly payment available under similar circumstances based on single payment
immediate fixed annuity rates then in use by us. The purpose of this provision
is to assure the Annuitant that, at retirement, if the fixed annuity purchase
rate then offered by us for new single payment immediate annuity contracts
25
<PAGE>
is more favorable than the annuity rates guaranteed by the Contract, the
Annuitant or other properly-designated payee will be given the benefit of the
new annuity rates.
In lieu of monthly payments, payments may be elected on a quarterly,
semi-annual or annual basis, in which case the amount of each annuity payment
will be determined on a basis consistent with that described above for monthly
payments.
TRANSFERS
After the Annuity Commencement Date, the Annuitant or other
properly-designated payee may make one transfer every 180 days among the
available Divisions of Separate Account D or from the Divisions to a fixed
Annuity Payment Option. No charge will be assessed for such transfer. No
transfers from a fixed to a variable Annuity Payment Option are permitted. If
a transfer would cause the value that is attributable to a Contract in any
Division to fall below $500, we reserve the right to transfer the remaining
balance in that Division in the same proportion as the transfer request.
Transfers will be effected at the end of the Valuation Period in which we
receive the Written transfer request at our Home Office. We reserve the right
to terminate or restrict transfers at any time.
DEATH PROCEEDS
DEATH PROCEEDS PRIOR TO THE ANNUITY COMMENCEMENT DATE
The death proceeds described below are payable to the Beneficiary under
the Contract if, prior to the Annuity Commencement Date, any of the following
events occurs: (a) the Annuitant dies and no Contingent Annuitant has been
named under a Non-Qualified Contract; (b) the Annuitant dies and we also
receive proof of death of any named Contingent Annuitant; or (c) the Owner
(including the first to die in the case of joint Owners) of a Non-Qualified
Contract dies, regardless of whether said deceased Owner was also the
Annuitant (however, if the Beneficiary is the Owner's surviving spouse, the
Beneficiary may elect to continue the Contract as described in the second
paragraph below). The death proceeds, prior to deduction of any applicable
premium taxes, will equal the greatest of (1) the sum of all net purchase
payments made (less any previously-deducted premium taxes and all prior
partial withdrawals), (2) the Owner's Account Value as of the end of the
Valuation Period in which we receive, at our Home Office, proof of death and
the Written request as to the manner of payment, or (3) the Highest
Anniversary Value prior to the date of death, as defined below.
The Highest Anniversary Value prior to the date of death will be
determined as follows:
First, we will calculate the Account Values at the end of each of
the past Contract Anniversaries that occurred prior to the
deceased's 81st birthday;
Second, each of the Account Values will be increased by the amount
of net purchase payments made since the end of such Contract Years;
and
Third, the result will be reduced by the amount of any withdrawals
made since the end of such Contract Years.
26
<PAGE>
The Highest Anniversary Value will be an amount equal to the highest of
such values. The Highest Anniversary Value will not be calculated after the
81st birthday. Net purchase payments are purchase payments less applicable
premium tax.
We will pay the death proceeds to the Beneficiary as of the date the
proceeds become payable. Such date is the end of the Valuation Period in which
we receive proof of the Owner's or Annuitant's death and a Written request in
good order from the Beneficiary as to the manner of payment.
If the Owner has not already done so, the Beneficiary may, within sixty
days after the date the death proceeds become payable, elect to receive the
death proceeds as a lump sum or in the form of one of the Annuity Payment
Options provided in the Contract. See "Annuity Payment Options." If we receive
no request as to the manner of payment, we will make a lump-sum payment, based
on values determined at that time.
If the Owner under a Non-Qualified Contract dies prior to the Annuity
Commencement Date, the Code requires that all amounts payable under the
Contract be distributed (a) within five years of the date of death or (b) as
annuity payments beginning within one year of the date of death and continuing
over a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of the Beneficiary. If
the Beneficiary is the Owner's surviving spouse, the spouse may elect to
continue the Contract as the new Owner and, if the original Owner was the
Annuitant, as the new Annuitant. If the Owner is not a natural person, these
requirements apply upon the death of the primary Annuitant within the meaning
of the Code. Failure to satisfy these Code distribution requirements may
result in serious adverse tax consequences. Under a parallel section of the
Code, similar requirements apply to retirement plans in connection with which
Qualified Contracts are issued.
DEATH PROCEEDS AFTER THE ANNUITY COMMENCEMENT DATE
If the Annuitant dies following the Annuity Commencement Date, the only
amounts payable to the Beneficiary or other properly-designated payee are any
continuing payments provided for under the Annuity Payment Option selected.
See "Annuity Payment Options." In such a case, the payee will have all the
remaining rights and powers under a Contract and be subject to all the terms
and conditions thereof. Also, if the Annuitant dies following the Annuity
Commencement Date, no previously named Contingent Annuitant can become the
Annuitant.
If the payee under a Non-Qualified Contract dies after the Annuity
Commencement Date, any remaining amounts payable under the terms of the
Annuity Payment Option must be distributed at least as rapidly as under the
method of distribution then in effect. If the payee is not a natural person,
this requirement applies upon the death of the primary Annuitant within the
meaning of the Code. Failure to satisfy these requirements of the Code may
result in serious adverse tax consequences. Under a parallel section of the
Code, similar requirements apply to the retirement plans in connection with
which Qualified Contracts are issued.
27
<PAGE>
PROOF OF DEATH
We accept the following as proof of any person's death: a copy of a
certified death certificate; a copy of a certified decree of a court of
competent jurisdiction as to the finding of death; a written statement by a
medical doctor who attended the deceased at the time of death; or any other
proof satisfactory to us.
Once we have paid the death proceeds, the Contract terminates and we have
no further obligations thereunder.
CHARGES UNDER THE CONTRACTS
PREMIUM TAXES
When applicable, we will deduct an amount to cover premium taxes imposed
by certain states. We may deduct such amount either at the time the tax is
imposed or later. Such deduction may be made, in accordance with applicable
state law:
(1) from purchase payment(s) when received; or
(2) from the Owner's Account Value at the time annuity payments begin; or
(3) from the amount of any partial withdrawal; or
(4) from proceeds payable upon termination of the Contract for any other
reason, including death of the Annuitant or Owner, or surrender of the
Contract.
If premium tax is paid, AGL may reimburse itself for such tax when
deduction is being made under items 2, 3, or 4 above calculated by multiplying
the sum of Purchase Payments being withdrawn by the applicable premium tax
percentage.
Applicable premium tax rates depend upon the Owner's then-current place
of residence. Applicable rates currently range from 0% to 3.5% and are subject
to change by legislation, administrative interpretations or judicial acts. We
will not make a profit on this charge.
SURRENDER CHARGE
The Surrender Charge reimburses us for part of our expenses related to
distributing the Contracts. We believe, however, that the amount of such
expenses will exceed the amount of revenues generated by the Surrender Charge.
We will pay such excess out of our general surplus, which might include
profits from the charge for the assumption of mortality and expense risks.
Unless a withdrawal is exempt from the Surrender Charge (as discussed
below), the Surrender Charge is a percentage of the amount of each purchase
payment that is withdrawn during the first seven years after it was received.
The percentage declines depending on how many years have passed since the
withdrawn purchase payment was originally credited to your Account Value, as
follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
SURRENDER CHARGE AS A
YEAR OF PURCHASE PERCENTAGE OF PURCHASE
PAYMENT WITHDRAWAL PAYMENT WITHDRAWN
<S> <C>
1st 6%
2nd 6%
3rd 5%
28
<PAGE>
4th 5%
5th 4%
6th 3%
7th 2%
Thereafter 0%
</TABLE>
Only for the purpose of computing the Surrender Charge, the earliest
purchase payments are deemed to be withdrawn first, and before any amounts in
excess of purchase payments are withdrawn from your Account Value. The
following transactions will be considered as withdrawals for purposes of
assessing the Surrender Charge: total surrender, partial withdrawal,
commencement of an Annuity Payment Option, and termination due to insufficient
Account Value.
Nevertheless, the Surrender Charge will NOT apply to withdrawals in the
following circumstances:
The amount of withdrawals that exceeds the cumulative amount of your
purchase payments;
Death of the Annuitant, at any age, after the Annuity Commencement Date;
Death of the Annuitant, at any age, prior to the Annuity Commencement
Date, provided no Contingent Annuitant survives;
Death of the Owner, including the first to die in the case of joint
Owners of a Non-Qualified Contract;
Annuitization over at least 10 years, or life contingent annuitization
where the life expectancy is at least 10 years;
Within the 30 day window under the One-Time Reinstatement Privilege;
If the Annuitant has been confined to a long-term care facility or is
subject to a terminal illness (to the extent that the rider for these
matters is available in your state), as set forth under "Long-Term Care
and Terminal Illness".
The Surrender Charge also does NOT apply to the surrender of a Contract,
or to the withdrawal of Contract Value (limited to the Variable Account Value
and the one year Guarantee Period) of a Contract, issued to owners who are:
(1) employees or registered representatives (or the spouses or minor children
of employees or registered representatives) of any broker-dealer authorized to
sell the Contracts, or (2) officers, directors, or bona-fide full-time
employees of AGL or American General Securities Incorporated, the principal
underwriter of the Contracts, or their affiliated companies, or Van Kampen
American Capital Distributors, Inc., the distributor of the Contracts. These
waivers of Surrender Charge are based upon the Contract Owner's status at the
time the Contract was purchased.
In addition, the Surrender Charge does NOT apply to the portion of your
first withdrawal or total surrender in any Contract Year that does not exceed
10% of the amount of your purchase payments that (a) have not previously been
withdrawn and (b) have been credited to the Contract for at least one year. If
multiple withdrawals are made during a Contract Year, the amount eligible for
the free withdrawal will be recalculated at the time of each withdrawal. After
the first Contract Year, non-automatic and automatic withdrawals may be made
in the same Contract Year subject to the 10%
29
<PAGE>
limitation. For withdrawals under a systematic withdrawal plan, Purchase
Payments credited for 30 days or more are eligible for the 10% free
withdrawal.
The Surrender Charge will not apply to any amounts withdrawn which are in
excess of the amount permitted by the 10% free withdrawal privilege, described
above, if such amounts are required to be withdrawn to obtain or retain
favorable tax treatment. For example, under certain circumstances the income
and estate tax benefits of a charitable remainder trust may be available only
if assets are withdrawn from a Contract funding such trust more rapidly than
the 10% free withdrawal privilege would permit. This exception is subject to
our approval.
A free withdrawal pursuant to any of the foregoing Surrender Charge
exceptions is not deemed to be a withdrawal of purchase payments, except for
purposes of computing the 10% free withdrawal described in the preceding
paragraph. A penalty tax may be imposed on distributions if the recipient is
under age 59 1/2. See "Penalty Tax on Premature Distributions."
TRANSFER CHARGES
The charges to defray the expense of effecting transfers are described
under "Transfer, Automatic Rebalancing, Surrender and Partial Withdrawal of
Owner Account Value - Transfers" and "Annuity Period and Annuity Payment
Options - Transfers." These charges are designed not to yield a profit to us.
ANNUAL CONTRACT FEE
An Annual Contract Fee of $30 will be deducted from each Owner's Account
Value at the end of each Contract Year prior to the Annuity Commencement Date.
This Fee is for administrative expenses (which do not include expenses of
distributing the Contracts), and we do not expect that the revenues we will
derive from this Fee will exceed such expenses. Unless paid directly, the Fee
will be allocated among the Guarantee Periods and Divisions in proportion to
your Account Value in each. The entire Fee for the year will be deducted from
the proceeds of any full surrender. We reserve the right to waive the Fee.
CHARGE TO SEPARATE ACCOUNT D
To offset other administrative expenses not covered by the Annual
Contract Fee discussed above, and to compensate us for assuming mortality and
expense risks under the Contracts, Separate Account D will incur a daily
charge at an annualized rate of 1.40% of the average daily net asset value of
Separate Account D attributable to the Contracts. Of this amount, .15% is for
administrative expenses and 1.25% is for the assumption of mortality and
expense risks. We do not expect to earn a profit on that portion of the charge
which is for administrative expenses, but we do expect to derive a profit from
the portion which is for the assumption of mortality and expense risks. There
is no necessary relationship between the amount of administrative charges
imposed on a given Contract and the amount of expenses actually attributable
to that Contract.
30
<PAGE>
In assuming the mortality risk, we are subject to the risk that our
actuarial estimate of mortality rates may prove erroneous and that Annuitants
will live longer than expected, or that more Owners or Annuitants than
expected will die at a time when the death benefit guaranteed by us is higher
than the net surrender value of their interests in the Contracts. In assuming
the expense risk, we are subject to the risk that the revenues from the
expense charges under the Contracts (which charges are guaranteed not to be
increased) will not cover our expense of administering the Contracts.
MISCELLANEOUS
Charges and expenses are paid out of the assets of each Series, as
described in the prospectus relating to that Series. We reserve the right to
impose charges or establish reserves for any federal or local taxes incurred
or that may be incurred by us, and that may be deemed attributable to the
Contracts.
SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PLAN
Automatic partial withdrawals, with minimum payments of $100, may be made
at periodic intervals through a systematic withdrawal program and the Contract
Owner may choose from payment schedules of monthly, quarterly, semi-annually,
or annually, and may start, stop, increase or decrease payments. Withdrawals
may start as early as 30 days after the issue date of the Contract and may be
taken from the Fixed Account or any Division, as specified by the Owner.
Systematic withdrawals are subject to the terms and conditions applicable to
other partial withdrawals, including Surrender Charges and exceptions to
Surrender Charges.
ONE-TIME REINSTATEMENT PRIVILEGE
If the Account Value is at least $500, the Owner may elect to reinvest
all of the proceeds that were previously liquidated from the Contract within
the past 30 days and have the Surrender Charge and any Annual Contract Fee not
then due credited back to the Contract. The funds will be reinvested at the
value next following the date of receipt of the reinstated Account Value.
Unless you request otherwise, the reinstated Account Value will be allocated
among the Divisions and Guarantee Periods in the same proportions as the prior
surrender. You may use this privilege only once.
REDUCTION IN SURRENDER CHARGES OR ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGES
We may reduce the Surrender Charges or administrative charges imposed
under certain Qualified Contracts in connection with employer-sponsored plans.
Any such reductions will reflect differences in costs or services (due to such
factors as reduced sales expenses or administrative efficiencies relating to
serving a large number of employees of a single employer and functions assumed
by the employer that we otherwise would have to perform) and will not be
unfairly discriminatory as to any person.
LONG-TERM CARE AND TERMINAL ILLNESS
THE RIDER DESCRIBED BELOW IS NOT AVAILABLE IN ALL STATES, AND YOU SHOULD
THEREFORE CONSULT YOUR SALES REPRESENTATIVE OR OUR HOME OFFICE AS TO WHETHER
IT WILL APPLY TO YOU. THERE IS NO SEPARATE CHARGE FOR THIS RIDER.
31
<PAGE>
LONG-TERM CARE
Pursuant to a special Contract rider, no Surrender Charge will apply to a
partial withdrawal or total surrender made during any period of time that the
Annuitant is confined for 30 days or more (or within 30 days after discharge)
in a hospital or state-licensed in-patient nursing facility. We must receive
Written proof of such confinement that is satisfactory to us.
TERMINAL ILLNESS
The rider also provides that no Surrender Charge will apply to a partial
withdrawal or total surrender if we have received a physician's Written
certification that the Annuitant is considered to be terminally ill and not
expected to live more than twelve months and have waived or exercised our
right to a second physician's opinion.
OTHER ASPECTS OF THE CONTRACTS
Only an officer of AGL can agree to change or waive the provisions of any
Contract. The Contracts are non-participating and are not entitled to share in
any dividends, profits or surplus of AGL.
OWNERS, ANNUITANTS, AND BENEFICIARIES; ASSIGNMENTS
The Owner of a Contract will be the same as the Annuitant, unless the
purchaser designates a different Owner when applying to purchase a Contract.
In the case of joint ownership, both Owners must join in the exercise of any
rights or privileges under the Contract. The Annuitant and any Contingent
Annuitant are designated in the application for a Contract and may not
thereafter be changed.
The Beneficiary and any Contingent Beneficiary are designated when
applying to purchase a Contract. A Beneficiary or Contingent Beneficiary may
be changed by the Owner prior to the Annuity Commencement Date, while the
Annuitant is still alive, and by the payee following the Annuity Commencement
Date. Any designation of a new Beneficiary or Contingent Beneficiary is
effective as of the date it is signed but will not affect any payments we make
or action we take before receiving the Written request. We also need the
Written consent of any irrevocably-named Beneficiary or Contingent Beneficiary
before making a change. Under certain retirement programs, spousal consent may
be required to name a Beneficiary other than the spouse or to change a
Beneficiary to a person other than the spouse. We are not responsible for the
validity of any designation of a Beneficiary or Contingent Beneficiary.
If no named Beneficiary or Contingent Beneficiary is living at the time
any payment is to be made, the Owner will be the Beneficiary, or if the Owner
is not then living, the Owner's estate will be the Beneficiary.
Rights under a Qualified Contract may be assigned only in certain narrow
circumstances referred to therein. Owners and other payees may assign their
rights under Non-Qualified Contracts, including their ownership rights. We
take no responsibility for the validity of any assignment. A change in
ownership rights must be made in Writing and a copy must be sent to our Home
Office. The change will be effective on the date it was made, although we are
not bound by a change until the date we record it. The rights under a Contract
are subject to any assignment of record at our Home Office. An assignment or
pledge of a Contract may have adverse tax consequences. See "Federal Income
Tax Matters."
32
<PAGE>
REPORTS
We will mail to Owners (or persons receiving payments following the
Annuity Commencement Date), at their last known address of record, any reports
and communications required by applicable law or regulation. You should
therefore give us prompt written notice of any address change.
RIGHTS RESERVED BY US
Upon notice to the Owner, a Contract may be modified by us, to the extent
necessary in order to (1) operate Separate Account D in any form permitted
under the 1940 Act or in any other form permitted by law; (2) transfer any
assets in any Division to another Division, or to one or more separate
accounts, or the Fixed Account; (3) add, combine or remove Divisions in
Separate Account D, or combine the Separate Account with another separate
account; (4) add, restrict or remove Guarantee Periods of the Fixed Account;
(5) make any new Division available to you on a basis to be determined by us;
(6)substitute, for the shares held in any Division, the shares of another
Series or the shares of another investment company or any other investment
permitted by law; (7) make any changes required by the Code or by any other
applicable law, regulation or interpretation in order to continue treatment of
the Contract as an annuity; (8) commence deducting premium taxes or adjust the
amount of premium taxes deducted in accordance with applicable state law; or
(9) make any changes required to comply with the rules of any Series. When
required by law, we will obtain your approval of changes and the approval of
any appropriate regulatory authority.
PAYMENT AND DEFERMENT
Amounts surrendered or withdrawn from a Contract will normally be paid
within seven calendar days after the end of the Valuation Period in which we
receive the Written surrender or withdrawal request in good order. In the case
of payment of death proceeds, if we do not receive a Written request as to the
manner of payment within 60 days after the death proceeds become payable, any
death benefit proceeds will be paid as a lump sum, normally within seven
calendar days after the end of the Valuation Period that contains the last day
of said 60 day period. We reserve the right, however, to defer payment or
transfers of amounts out of the Fixed Account for up to six months. Also, we
reserve the right to defer payment of that portion of your Account Value that
is attributable to a purchase payment made by check for a reasonable period of
time (not to exceed 15 days) to allow the check to clear the banking system.
Finally, we reserve the right to defer payment of any surrender and
annuity payment amounts or death benefit amounts of any portion of the
Variable Account Value if (a) the New York Stock Exchange is closed other than
customary weekend and holiday closings, or trading on the New York Stock
Exchange is restricted; (b) an emergency exists, as a result of which disposal
of securities is not reasonably practicable or it is not reasonably
practicable to fairly determine the Variable Account Value; or (c) the
Securities and Exchange Commission by order permits the delay for the
protection of Owners. Transfers and allocations of Account Value among the
Divisions and the Fixed Account may also be postponed under these
circumstances.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS
GENERAL
It is not possible to comment on all of the federal income tax
consequences associated with the Contracts. Federal income tax law is complex
and its application to a particular person may vary according to facts
peculiar to such person. Consequently, this discussion is not intended as tax
advice, and you should consult with a competent tax adviser before purchasing
a Contract.
The discussion is based on the law, regulations and interpretations
existing on the date of this Prospectus. These authorities, however, are
subject to change by Congress, the Treasury Department and judicial decisions.
The discussion does not address state or local tax, estate and gift tax,
or social security tax consequences associated with the Contracts.
NON-QUALIFIED CONTRACTS
PURCHASE PAYMENTS. Purchasers of a Contract that does not qualify for
special tax treatment and is therefore "Non-Qualified" may not deduct from
their gross income the amount of purchase payments made.
TAX DEFERRAL PRIOR TO ANNUITY COMMENCEMENT DATE. Owners who are natural
persons are not taxed currently on increases in their Account Value resulting
from interest earned in the Fixed Account or, if certain diversification
requirements are met, the investment experience of Separate Account D. This
treatment applies to Separate Account D only if it invests in Series that are
"adequately diversified" in accordance with Treasury Department regulations.
Although we do not control the Series, the investment advisers to the Series
have undertaken to use their best efforts to operate the Series in compliance
with these diversification requirements. A Contract investing in a Series that
failed to meet the diversification requirements would subject Owners to
current taxation of income in the Contract that has not previously been taxed.
Income means the excess of the Account Value over the Owner's investment in
the Contract (discussed below).
Current regulations do not provide guidance as to any circumstances in
which control over allocation of values among different investment
alternatives may cause Owners or persons receiving annuity payments to be
treated as the owners of Separate Account D assets for tax purposes. We
reserve the right to amend the Contracts in any way necessary to avoid any
such result. The Treasury Department has stated that it may establish
standards in this regard through regulations or rulings. Such standards may
apply only prospectively, although retroactive application is possible if such
standards are considered not to embody a new position.
Owners that are not natural persons -- that is, Owners such as
corporations -- are taxed currently on annual increases in their Account Value
unless an exception applies. Exceptions exist for, among other things, Owners
that are not natural persons but that hold the Contract as an agent for a
natural person.
TAXATION OF ANNUITY PAYMENTS. Each annuity payment received after the
Annuity Commencement Date is excludible from gross income in part. In the case
of Fixed Annuity Payments,
34
<PAGE>
the excludible portion is determined by multiplying the amount paid by the
ratio of the investment in the Contract (discussed below) to the expected
return under the fixed Annuity Payment Option. In the case of Variable Annuity
Payments, the amount paid is multiplied by the ratio of the investment in the
Contract to the number of expected payments. In both cases, the remaining
portion of each annuity payment, and all payments made after the investment in
the Contract has been reduced to zero, are included in the payee's income.
Should annuity payments cease on account of the death of the Annuitant before
the investment in the Contract has been fully recovered, the payee is allowed
a deduction for the unrecovered amount. If the payee is the Annuitant, the
deduction is taken on the final tax return. If the payee is a Beneficiary,
that Beneficiary may recover the balance of the total investment as payments
are made or on the Beneficiary's final tax return. An Owner's "investment in
the Contract" is the amount equal to the portions of purchase payments made by
or on behalf of the Owner that have not been excluded or deducted from the
individual's gross income, less amounts previously received under the Contract
that were not included in income.
TAXATION OF PARTIAL WITHDRAWALS AND TOTAL SURRENDERS. Partial withdrawals
from a Contract are includible in income to the extent that the Owner's
Account Value exceeds the investment in the Contract. In the event a Contract
is surrendered in its entirety, any amount received in excess of the
investment in the Contract is includible in income, and any remaining amount
received is excludible from income. All annuity contracts issued by us to the
same Owner during any calendar year are to be aggregated for purposes of
determining the amount of any distribution that is includible in gross income.
PENALTY TAX ON PREMATURE DISTRIBUTIONS. A penalty tax is imposed on
distributions under a Contract equal to 10% of the amount includible in
income. The penalty tax will not apply, however, to (1) distributions made on
or after the recipient attains age 59 1/2, (2) distributions on account of the
recipient's becoming disabled, (3) distributions that are made after the death
of the Owner prior to the Annuity Commencement Date or the payee after the
Annuity Commencement Date (or if such person is not a natural person, that are
made after the death of the primary Annuitant, as defined in the Code), and
(4) distributions that are part of a series of substantially equal periodic
payments made over the life (or life expectancy) of the Annuitant or the joint
life (or joint life expectancies) of the Annuitant and the Beneficiary.
Premature distributions may result, for example, from an early Annuity
Commencement Date, an early surrender, partial withdrawal from or assignment
of a Contract, or the early death of an Annuitant, unless clause (3) above
applies.
PAYMENT OF DEATH PROCEEDS. Special rules apply to the distribution of any
death proceeds payable under the Contract. See "Death Proceeds."
ASSIGNMENTS AND LOANS. An assignment, loan, or pledge with respect to a
Non-Qualified Contract is taxed in the same manner as a partial withdrawal, as
described above. Repayment of a loan or release of an assignment or pledge is
treated as a new purchase payment.
INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ANNUITIES ("IRAS")
PURCHASE PAYMENTS. Individuals who are not active participants in a tax
qualified retirement plan may, in any year, deduct from their taxable income
purchase payments for an IRA equal to the lesser of $2,000 or 100% of the
individual's earned income. In the case of married individuals filing a joint
return, the deduction will, in general, be the lesser of $4,000 or 100% of the
combined earned income of both spouses, reduced by any deduction for an IRA
purchase payment allowed to the spouse. Single persons who participate in a
tax-qualified retirement plan and who have adjusted gross income not in excess
of $25,000 may fully deduct their IRA purchase payments. Those who have
35
<PAGE>
adjusted gross income in excess of $35,000 will not be able to deduct purchase
payments, and for those with adjusted gross income between $25,000 and $35,000
the deduction is phased out based on the amount of income. Similarly, the
otherwise deductible portion of an IRA purchase payment will be phased out, in
the case of married individuals filing joint tax returns, with adjusted gross
income between $40,000 and $50,000, and in the case of married individuals
filing separately, with adjusted gross income between $0 and $10,000.
Individuals who are precluded from deducting all or a portion of their
purchase payments because of participation in a tax-qualified retirement plan
may still make non-deductible contributions on which earnings will be tax
deferred. The total of deductible and non-deductible contributions may not
exceed the lesser of $2,000 or 100% of earned income, or, in the case of
married individuals filing a joint return, the lesser of $4,000 or 100% of the
combined earned income of both spouses.
DISTRIBUTIONS FROM AN IRA. Amounts received under an IRA as annuity
payments, upon partial withdrawal or total surrender, or on the death of the
Annuitant, are included in the Annuitant's or other recipient's income. If
nondeductible purchase payments have been made, a pro rata portion of such
distributions may not be included in income. A 10% penalty tax is imposed on
the amount includible in gross income from distributions that occur before the
Annuitant attains age 59 1/2 and that are not made on account of death or
disability, with certain exceptions. These exceptions include distributions
that are part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments made over
the life (or life expectancy) of the Annuitant or the joint lives (or joint
life expectancies) of the Annuitant and the Beneficiary. Distributions of
minimum amounts specified by the Code must commence by April 1 of the calendar
year following the calendar year in which the Annuitant attains age 70 1/2.
Additional distribution rules apply after the death of the Annuitant. These
rules are similar to those governing distributions on the death of an Owner
(or other payee during the Annuity Period) under a Non-Qualified Contract. See
"Death Proceeds." Failure to comply with the minimum distribution rules will
result in the imposition of a penalty tax of 50% of the amount by which the
minimum distribution required exceeds the actual distribution.
TAX FREE ROLLOVERS. Amounts may be transferred in a tax-free rollover
from a tax-qualified plan to an IRA (and from one IRA to another IRA) if
certain conditions are met. All taxable distributions ("eligible rollover
distributions") from tax qualified plans are eligible to be rolled over with
the exception of (1) annuities paid over a life or life expectancy, (2)
installments for a period of ten years or more, and (3) required minimum
distributions under section 401(a)(9) of the Code.
Rollovers may be accomplished in two ways. First, an eligible rollover
distribution may be paid directly to an IRA (a "direct rollover"). Second, the
distribution may be paid directly to the Annuitant and then, within 60 days of
receipt, the amount may be rolled over to an IRA. However, any amount that was
not distributed as a direct rollover will be subject to 20% income tax
withholding.
SIMPLIFIED EMPLOYEE PENSION PLANS
Employees and employers may establish an IRA plan known as a simplified
employee pension plan ("SEP"), if certain requirements are met. An employee
may make contributions to a SEP in accordance with the rules applicable to
IRAs discussed above. Employer contributions to an employee's SEP are
deductible by the employer and are not currently includible in the taxable
income of the employee. However, total employer contributions are limited to
15% of an employee's compensation or $30,000, whichever is less.
36
<PAGE>
SIMPLE RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS
Employees and employers may establish an IRA plan known as a simple
retirement account ("SRA"), if certain requirements are met. Under an SRA, the
employer contributes elective employee compensation deferrals up to a maximum
of $6,000 a year. The employer must, in general, make a fully vested matching
contribution for employee deferrals up to 3% of compensation.
OTHER QUALIFIED PLANS
PURCHASE PAYMENTS. Purchase payments made by an employer under a pension,
profit-sharing, or annuity plan qualified under section 401 or 403(a) of the
Code, not in excess of certain limits, are deductible by the employer. Such
purchase payments are also excluded from the current income of the employee.
DISTRIBUTIONS PRIOR TO THE ANNUITY COMMENCEMENT DATE. To the extent that
purchase payments are includible in an employee's taxable income, they (less
any amounts previously received that were not includible in the employee's
taxable income) represent his or her "investment in the Contract." Amounts
received prior to the Annuity Commencement Date under a Contract in connection
with a section 401 or 403(a) plan are generally allocated on a pro-rata basis
between the employee's investment in the Contract and other amounts. A
lump-sum distribution will not be includible in income in the year of
distribution if the employee transfers, within 60 days of receipt, all amounts
received, less the employee's investment in the Contract), to another
tax-qualified plan or to an individual retirement account or an IRA in
accordance with the rollover rules under the Code. However, any amount that is
not distributed as a direct rollover will be subject to 20% income tax
withholding. See "Tax Free Rollovers." Special tax treatment may be available
in the case of certain lump-sum distributions that are not rolled over to
another plan or IRA.
A 10% penalty tax is imposed on the amount includible in gross income
from distributions that occur before the employee's attaining age 59 1/2 and
that are not made on account of death or disability, with certain exceptions.
These exceptions include distributions that are (1) part of a series of
substantially equal periodic payments beginning after the employee separates
from service and made over the life (or life expectancy) of the employee or
the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of the employee and the
Beneficiary, (2) made after the employee's separation from service on account
of early retirement after attaining age 55, or (3) made to an alternate payee
pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order.
ANNUITY PAYMENTS. A portion of annuity payments received under Contracts
in connection with section 401 and 403(a) plans after the Annuity Commencement
Date may be excludible from the employee's income, in the manner discussed
above, in connection with Variable Annuity Payments, under "Non-Qualified
Contracts - Taxation of Annuity Payments," except that the number of expected
payments is determined under a provision in the Code. Distributions of minimum
amounts specified by the Code generally must commence by April 1 of the
calendar year following the calendar year in which the employee attains age 70
1/2 or retires, if later. Failure to comply with the minimum distribution
rules will result in the imposition of a penalty tax of 50% of the amount by
which the minimum distribution required exceeds the actual distribution.
SELF-EMPLOYED INDIVIDUALS. Various special rules apply to tax-qualified
plans established by self-employed individuals.
37
<PAGE>
PRIVATE EMPLOYER UNFUNDED DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLANS
PURCHASE PAYMENTS. Private taxable employers may establish unfunded,
Non-Qualified deferred compensation plans for a select group of management or
highly compensated employees and/or for independent contractors.
These types of programs allow individuals to defer receipt of up to 100%
of compensation that would otherwise be includible in income and therefore to
defer the payment of federal income taxes on such amounts, as well as earnings
thereon. Purchase payments made by the employer, however, are not immediately
deductible by the employer, and the employer is currently taxed on any
increase in Account Value.
Deferred compensation plans represent a contractual promise on the part
of the employer to pay current compensation at some future time. The Contract
is owned by the employer and is subject to the claims of the employer's
creditors. The individual has no right or interest in the Contract and is
entitled only to payment from the employer's general assets in accordance with
plan provisions.
TAXATION OF DISTRIBUTIONS. Amounts received by an individual from a
private employer deferred compensation plan are includible in gross income for
the taxable year in which such amounts are paid or otherwise made available.
EXCESS DISTRIBUTIONS - 15% TAX
Certain persons, particularly those who participate in more than one
tax-qualified retirement plan, may be subject to an additional tax of 15% on
certain excess aggregate distributions from those plans. In general, excess
distributions are taxable distributions for all tax qualified plans in excess
of a specified annual limit for payments made in the form of an annuity
(currently $160,000) or five times the annual limit for lump-sum
distributions.
FEDERAL INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING AND REPORTING
Amounts distributed from a Contract, to the extent includible in taxable
income, are subject to federal income tax withholding. The payee may, however,
elect to have no income tax withheld by submitting a withholding exemption
certificate to us.
In some cases, if you own more than one Qualified annuity contract, such
contracts may be aggregated for purposes of determining whether the federal
tax law requirement for minimum distributions after age 70 1/2, or retirement
in appropriate circumstances, has been satisfied. If, under this aggregation
procedure, you are relying on distributions pursuant to another annuity
contract to satisfy the minimum distribution requirement under a Qualified
Contract issued by us, you must sign a waiver releasing us from any liability
to you for not calculating and reporting the amount of taxes and penalties
payable for failure to make required minimum distributions under the Contract.
TAXES PAYABLE BY AGL AND SEPARATE ACCOUNT D
AGL is taxed as a life insurance company under the Code. The operations
of Separate Account D are part of the total operations of AGL and are not
taxed separately. Under existing federal income tax laws, AGL is not taxed on
investment income derived by Separate Account D (including realized and
unrealized capital gains) with respect to the Contracts. AGL reserves the
right to allocate to the Contracts any federal, state or other tax liability
that may result in the future from maintenance of Separate Account D or the
Contracts.
38
<PAGE>
Certain Series may elect to pass through to AGL any taxes withheld by
foreign taxing jurisdictions on foreign source income. Such an election will
result in additional taxable income and income tax to AGL. The amount of
additional income tax, however, may be more than offset by credits for the
foreign taxes withheld which are also passed through. These credits may
provide a benefit to AGL.
DISTRIBUTION ARRANGEMENTS
The Contracts will be sold by individuals who, in addition to being
licensed by state insurance authorities to sell the Contracts of AGL, are also
registered representatives of American General Securities Incorporated
("AGSI"), the principal underwriter of the Contracts, or registered
representatives of Van Kampen American Capital Distributors, Inc. or other
broker-dealer firms or representatives of other firms that are exempt from
broker-dealer regulation. AGSI, Van Kampen American Capital Distributors, Inc.
and any such other broker-dealer firms are registered with the Securities and
Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as
broker-dealers and are members of the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc. AGSI is a wholly-owned subsidiary of AGL. AGSI's principal
business address is the same as that of our Home Office. The interests under
the Contracts are offered on a continuous basis. AGSI and Van Kampen American
Capital Distributors, Inc. have entered into certain revenue and cost-sharing
arrangements in connection with the marketing of the Contracts.
AGL compensates Van Kampen American Capital Distributors, Inc. ("VKAC
Distributors") and other broker-dealers that sell the Contracts according to
one or more compensation schedules. The schedules provide for commissions
ranging from 4.75% up to 6% of first year purchase payments received pursuant
to the Contracts. In addition, depending on the schedule selected, AGL may pay
continuing "trail" commissions ranging from 0.25% to 0.50% of Contract Account
Value. AGL also has agreed to pay VKAC Distributors for its promotional
activities such as the solicitation of selling group agreements between
broker-dealers and AGL, agent appointments with AGL, printing and development
of sales literature to be used by AGL appointed agents as well as related
marketing support and related special promotional campaigns. These
distribution expenses do not result in any additional charges under the
Contracts that are not described under "Charges under the Contracts."
LEGAL MATTERS
The legality of the Contracts described in this Prospectus has been
passed upon by Steven A. Glover, Esquire, with the law department of AGL.
Freedman, Levy, Kroll & Simonds, Washington, D.C., has advised AGL on certain
federal securities law matters.

INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ANNUITY DISCLOSURE STATEMENT
INTRODUCTION
THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT IS DESIGNED FOR PRESENT OWNERS OF IRAS ISSUED BY
AMERICAN GENERAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AFTER DECEMBER 31, 1996.
This Disclosure Statement is not part of your contract but contains general
and standardized information which must be furnished to each person who is
issued an Individual Retirement Annuity. You must refer to your policy to
determine your specific rights and obligations thereunder.
REVOCATION
If you are purchasing a new or rollover IRA, then if for any reason you, as a
recipient of this Disclosure Statement, decide within 20 days from the date
your policy is delivered that you do not desire to retain your IRA, written
notification to the Company must be mailed, together with your policy, within
that period. If such notice is mailed within 20 days, all contributions,
without adjustments for any applicable sales commissions or administrative
expenses, will be refunded.
Mail notification of revocation and your policy to:
American General Life Insurance Company
Annuity Administration Department
P. O. Box 1401
Houston, Texas 77251-1401
(Phone No. (800) 247-6584).
ELIGIBILITY
Under Internal Revenue Code ("Code") Section 219, if you are not an active
participant (see A. below), you may make a contribution of up to the lesser of
$2,000 or 100% of compensation and take a deduction for the entire amount
contributed. If you are a married individual filing a joint return, and your
compensation is less than your spouse's, the deduction will, in general, be
the lesser of $4,000 or 100% of the combined earned income of both spouses,
reduced by any deduction for an IRA purchase payment allowed to your spouse.
If you are an active participant, but have an adjusted gross income(AGI) below
a certain level (see B. below), you may still make a deductible contribution.
If, however, you or your spouse is an active participant and your combined AGI
is above the specified level, the amount of the deductible contribution you
may make to an IRA will be phased down and eventually eliminated.
A. Active Participant
You are an "active participant" for a year if you are covered by a retirement
plan. You are covered by a "retirement plan" for a year if your employer or
union has a retirement plan under which money
Page 1
<PAGE>
is added to your account or you are eligible to earn retirement credits. For
example, if you are covered under a profit-sharing plan, certain government
plans, a salary reduction arrangement (such as a tax sheltered annuity
arrangement or a 401(k) plan), a Simplified Employee Pension program (SEP),
any Simple Retirement Account or a plan which promises you a retirement
benefit which is based upon the number of years of service you have with the
employer, you are likely to be an active participant. Your Form W-2 for the
year should indicate your participation status.
You are an active participant for a year even if you are not yet vested in
your retirement benefit. Also, if you make required contributions or voluntary
employee contributions to a retirement plan, you are an active participant. In
certain plans, you may be an active participant even if you were only with the
employer for part of the year.
You are not considered an active participant if you are covered in a plan only
because of your service as 1) an Armed Forces Reservist for less than 90 days
of active service, or 2) a volunteer firefighter covered for firefighting
service by a government plan. Of course, if you are covered in any other plan,
these exceptions do not apply.
If you are married, filed a separate tax return, and did not live with your
spouse at any time during the year, your spouse's active participation will
not affect your ability to make deductible contributions.
B. Adjusted Gross Income (AGI)
If you are an active participant, you must look at your Adjusted Gross Income
for the year (if you and your spouse file a joint tax return, you use your
combined AGI) to determine whether you can make a deductible IRA contribution.
Your tax return will show you how to calculate your AGI for this purpose. If
you are at or below a certain AGI level, called the Threshold Level, you are
treated as if you were not an active participant and can make a deductible
contribution under the same rules as a person who is not an active
participant.
If you are single, your Threshold AGI Level is $25,000. The Threshold Level if
you are married and file a joint tax return is $40,000, and if you are married
but file a separate tax return, the Threshold Level is $0.
If your AGI is less than $10,000 above your Threshold Level, you will still be
able to make a deductible contribution, but it will be limited in amount. The
amount by which your AGI exceeds your Threshold Level (AGI - Threshold Level)
is called your Excess AGI. The Maximum Allowable Deduction is $2,000 (or
$4,000 if you are married, file a joint return and earn less compensation than
your spouse). You can estimate your Deduction Limit as follows:
(Your Deduction Limit may be slightly higher if you use this formula rather
than the table provided by the IRS.)
$10,000 - Excess AGI
-------------------- x Maximum Allowable Deduction = Deduction Limit
$10,000
Page 2
<PAGE>
You must round up the result to the next highest $10 level (the next highest
number which ends in zero). For example, if the result is $1,525, you must
round it up to $1,530. If the final result is below $200 but above zero, your
Deduction Limit is $200. Your Deduction Limit cannot, in any event, exceed
100% of your compensation.
EXAMPLE 1: Ms. Smith, a single person, is an active participant and has an
AGI of $31,619. She calculates her deductible IRA contribution as follows:
Her AGI is $31,619
Her Threshold Level is $25,000
Her Excess AGI is (AGI - Threshold Level) or ($31,619-$25,000) = $6,619
Her Maximum Allowable Deduction is $2,000
So, her IRA deduction limit is:
$10,000 - $6,619
---------------- x $2,000 = $676 (rounded to $680)
$10,000
Example 2: Mr. and Mrs. Young file a joint tax return. Each spouse earns more
than $2,000 and one is an active participant. They have a combined AGI of
$44,255. They may each contribute to an IRA and calculate their deductible
contributions to each IRA as follows:
Their AGI is $44,255
Their Threshold Level is $40,000
Their Excess AGI is (AGI - Threshold Level) or ($44,255 - $40,000) =
$4,255
The Maximum Allowable Deduction for each spouse is $2,000
So, each spouse may compute his or her IRA deduction limit as follows:
$10,000 - 4,255
--------------- x $2,000 = $1,149 (rounded to $1,150)
$10,000
Example 3: If, in Example 2, Mr. Young did not earn any compensation, each
spouse may still contribute to an IRA and calculate their deductible
contribution to each IRA as in Example 2.
Example 4: Mr. Jones, a married person, files a separate tax return and is an
active participant. He has $1,500 of compensation and wishes to make a
deductible contribution to an IRA.
His AGI is $1,500
His Threshold Level is $0
His Excess AGI is (AGI - Threshold Level) or $1,500-$0) = $1,500
His Maximum Allowable Deduction is $2,000
So, his IRA deduction limit is:
$10,000 - $1,500
---------------- x $2,000 = $1,700
$10,000
Even though his IRA deduction limit under the formula is $1,700, Mr.
Jones may not deduct an amount in excess of his compensation, so,
his actual deduction is limited to $1,500.

NON-DEDUCTIBLE CONTRIBUTIONS TO IRAs
Even if you are above the Threshold Level and thus may not make a deductible
contribution of up to $2,000 (or up to $4,000 in the case of married
individuals filing a joint return), you may still contribute up to the lesser
of 100% of compensation or $2,000 to an IRA ($4,000 in the case of married
individuals filing a joint return). The amount of your contribution which is
not deductible will be a non-deductible contribution to the IRA. You may also
choose to make a contribution non-deductible even if you could have deducted
part or all of the contribution. Interest or other earnings on your IRA
contribution, whether from deductible or non-deductible contributions, will
not be taxed until taken out of your IRA and distributed to you.
If you make a non-deductible contribution to an IRA, you must report the
amount of the non-deductible contribution to the IRS on Form 8606 as a part of
your tax return for the year.
You may make a $2,000 contribution at any time during the year, if your
compensation for the year will be at least $2,000, without having to know how
much will be deductible. When you fill out your return, you may then figure
out how much is deductible.
You may withdraw an IRA contribution made for a year any time before April 15
of the following year. If you do so, you must also withdraw the earnings
attributable to that portion and report the earnings as income for the year
for which the contribution was made. If some portion of your contribution is
not deductible, you may decide either to withdraw the non-deductible amount,
or to leave it in the IRA and designate that portion as a non-deductible
contribution on your tax return.
IRA DISTRIBUTIONS
Generally, IRA distributions which are not rolled over (see "Rollover IRA
Rules", below) are included in your gross income in the year they are
received. Non-deductible IRA contributions, however, are made using income
which has already been taxed (that is, they are not deductible contributions).
Thus, the portion of the IRA distributions consisting of non-deductible
contributions will not be taxed again when received by you. If you make any
non-deductible IRA contributions, each distribution from your IRA(s) will
consist of a non-taxable portion (return of deductible contributions, if any,
and account earnings).
Thus, you may not take a distribution which is entirely tax-free. The
following formula is used to determine the non-taxable portion of your
distributions for a taxable year:
Remaining
Non-Deductible Contributions
---------------------------- x Total Distributions = Nontaxable Distributions
Year-End Total IRA Balances (for the year) (for the year)
Page 4
<PAGE>
To figure the year-end total IRA balance, you treat all of your IRAs as a
single IRA. This includes all regular IRAs (whether accounts or annuities), as
well as Simplified Employee Pension (SEP) IRAs, and Rollover IRAs. You also
add back the distributions taken during the year.
EXAMPLE: An individual makes the following contributions to his or her
IRA(s).
Year Deductible Non-deductible
---- ---------- --------------
1986 $ 2,000
1987 1,800
1990 1,000 $ 1,000
1992 600 1,400
------- -------
$ 5,400 $ 2,400
Deductible Contributions: $ 5,400
Non-Deductible Contributions: 2,400
Earnings on IRAs: 1,200
Total Account Balance of IRA(s) as of 12/31/95: $ 9,000
(including distributions in 1995).
In 1995, the individual takes a distribution of $3,000. The total account
balance in the IRAs on 12/31/95 before 1995 distributions is $9,000. The
non-taxable portion of the distributions for 1995 is figured as follows:
Total non-deductible contributions $2,400
------ x $3,000 = $800
Total account balance in the IRAs, plus distributions $9,000
Thus, $800 of the $3,000 distribution in 1995 will not be included in the
individual's taxable income. The remaining $2,200 will be taxable for 1995.
ROLLOVER IRA RULES
1. IRA TO IRA
You may withdraw, tax-free, all or part of the assets from an IRA and reinvest
them in one or more IRAs. The reinvestment must be completed within 60 days of
the withdrawal. No IRA deduction is allowed for the reinvestment. Amounts
required to be distributed because the individual has reached age 70 1/2 may
not be rolled over.
2. EMPLOYER PLAN DISTRIBUTIONS TO IRA
All taxable distributions (known as "eligible rollover distributions") from
qualified pension, profit-sharing, stock bonus and tax sheltered annuity plans
may be rolled over to an IRA, with the exception of (1) annuities paid over a
life or life expectancy, (2) installments for a period of ten years or more,
and (3) required minimum distributions under section 401(a)(9).
Rollovers may be accomplished in two ways. First, you may elect to have an
eligible rollover distribution paid directly to an IRA (a "direct rollover").
Second, you may receive the distribution directly and then, within 60 days of
receipt, roll the amount over to an IRA. Under the Act, however, any amount
that you elect not to have distributed as a direct rollover will be subject to
20 percent income tax withholding, and, if you are younger than age 59 1/2,
may result in a 10% excise tax on any
Page 5
<PAGE>
amount of the distribution that is included in income. Questions regarding
distribution options under the Act should be directed to your Plan Trustee or
Plan Administrator, or may be answered by consulting IRS Temporary Regulations
ss.1.401(a)(31)-1, ss.1.402(c)-2T and ss.31.3405(c)-1.
PENALTIES FOR PREMATURE DISTRIBUTIONS
If you receive a distribution from your IRA before you reach age 59 1/2, an
additional tax of 10 percent will be imposed under Code ss.72(t), unless the
distribution (a) occurs because of your death or disability, (b) is for
certain medical care expenses or to an unemployed individual for health
insurance premiums, (c) is received as a part of a series of substantially
equal payments over your life or life expectancy, (d) is received as a part of
a series of substantially equal payments over the lives or life expectancy of
you and your beneficiary, or (e) the distribution is contributed to a rollover
IRA.
MINIMUM DISTRIBUTIONS
Under the rules set forth in Code ss.408(b)(3) and ss.401(a)(9), you may not
leave the funds in your contract indefinitely. Certain minimum distributions
are required. These required distributions may be taken in one of two ways:
(a) by withdrawing the balance of your contract by a "required beginning
date," usually April 1 of the year following the date at which you reach age
70 1/2; or (b) by withdrawing periodic distributions of the balance in your
contract by the required beginning date. These periodic distributions may be
taken over (a) your life; (b) the lives of you and your named beneficiary; (c)
a period not extending beyond your life expectancy; or (d) a period not
extending beyond the joint life expectancy of you and your named beneficiary.
If you do not satisfy the minimum distribution requirements, then, pursuant to
Code ss.4974, you may have to pay a 50% excise tax on the amount not
distributed as required that year.
The foregoing minimum distribution rules are discussed in detail in IRS
Publication 590, "Individual Retirement Arrangements."
REPORTING
You are required to report penalty taxes due on excess contributions, excess
accumulations, premature distributions, and prohibited transactions.
Currently, IRS Form 5329 is used to report such information to the Internal
Revenue Service.
PROHIBITED TRANSACTIONS
Neither you nor your beneficiary may engage in a prohibited transaction, as
that term is defined in Code ss.4975.
Borrowing any money from this IRA would, under Code ss.408(e)(3), cause the
contract to cease to be an Individual Retirement Annuity and would result in
the value of the annuity being included in the owner's gross income in the
taxable year in which such loan is made.
Use of this contract as security for a loan from the Company, if such loan
were otherwise permitted, would, under Code ss.408(e)(4), cause the portion so
used to be treated as a taxable distribution.
Page 6
<PAGE>
EXCESS CONTRIBUTIONS
Tax Code ss.4973 imposes a 6 percent excise tax as a penalty for an excess
contribution to an IRA. An excess contribution is the excess of the deductible
and nondeductible amounts contributed by the Owner to an IRA for that year
over the lesser of his or her taxable compensation or $2,000. (Different
limits apply in the case of a spousal IRA arrangement.) If the excess
contribution is not withdrawn by the due date of your tax return (including
extensions) you will be subject to the penalty.
IRS APPROVAL
Your contract and IRA endorsement have been approved by the Internal
Revenue Service as a tax qualified Individual Retirement Annuity. Such approval
by the Internal Revenue Service is a determination only as to the form of the
annuity and does not represent a determination of the merits of such annuity.
This disclosure statement is intended to provide an overview of the applicable
tax laws relating to Individual Retirement Arrangements. It is not intended to
constitute a comprehensive explanation as to the tax consequences of your IRA.
AS WITH ALL SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS SUCH AS THE ESTABLISHMENT OR MAINTENANCE
OF, OR WITHDRAWAL FROM AN IRA, APPROPRIATE TAX AND LEGAL COUNSEL SHOULD BE
CONSULTED. Further information may also be acquired by contacting your IRS
District Office or consulting IRS Publication 590.
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
(GENERATIONS VARIABLE ANNUITY, FORM NOS. 95020 REV 896 AND 95021 REV 896)
This Financial Disclosure is applicable to IRAs using a Generations Variable
Annuity (contract form numbers 95020 Rev 896 or 95021 Rev 896) purchased from
American General Life Insurance Company on or after January 2, 1997.
Earnings under variable annuities are not guaranteed, and depend on the
performance of the investment option(s) selected. As such, earnings cannot be
projected. Set forth below are the charges associated with such annuities.
CHARGES:
(a) Annual contract maintenance charges of $30 deducted at the end of
each contract year (waived if cumulative contributions are $100,000
or more).
(b) A maximum charge of $25 for each transfer, in excess of 12 free
transfers annually, of contract value between divisions of the
Separate Account.
(c) To compensate for mortality and expense risks assumed under the
contract, variable divisions only will incur a daily charge at an
annualized rate of 1.25% of the average Separate Account Value of the
contract during both the Accumulation and the Payout Phase.
(d) Premium taxes, if applicable, may be charged against Accumulation
Value at time of annuitization, a full or partial surrender or upon
the death of the Annuitant. If a jurisdiction imposes premium taxes
at the time purchase payments are made, the Company may deduct a
charge at that time.
Page 7
<PAGE>
(e) If the contract is surrendered, or if a withdrawal is made, there may
be a Surrender Charge. The Surrender Charge equals the sum of the
following:
6% of purchase payments for surrenders and withdrawals made
during the first contract year following receipt of the
purchase payments surrendered;
6% of purchase payments for surrenders and withdrawals made
during the second contract year following receipt of the
purchase payments surrendered;
5% of purchase payments for surrenders and withdrawals made
during the third contract year following receipt of the
purchase payments surrendered;
5% of purchase payments for surrenders and withdrawals made
during the fourth contract year following receipt of the
purchase payments surrendered;
4% of purchase payments for surrenders and withdrawals made
during the fifth contract year following receipt of the
purchase payments surrendered;
3% of purchase payments for surrenders and withdrawals made
during the sixth contract year following receipt of the
purchase payments surrendered;
2% of purchase payments for surrenders and withdrawals made
during the seventh contract year following receipt of the
purchase payments surrendered.
There will be no charge imposed for surrenders and withdrawals
made during the eighth and subsequent contract years following
receipt of the purchase payments surrendered.
Under certain circumstances described in the contract, portions of
a partial withdrawal may be exempt from the Surrender Charge.
(f) To compensate for administrative expenses, a daily charge will be
incurred at an annualized rate of .15% of the average Separate
Account Value of the contract during the Accumulation and the Payout
Phase.
(g) Each variable division will be charged a fee for asset management and
other expenses deducted directly from the underlying fund during the
Accumulation and Payout Phase. Total fees will range between .60% and
1.25%.

GENERAL INFORMATION
AGL (formerly American General Life Insurance Company of Delaware) is a
successor in interest to a company previously organized as a Delaware
corporation in 1917. Effective December 31, 1991, AGL redomesticated as a
Texas insurer and changed its name to American General Life Insurance Company.
AGL is a wholly-owned subsidiary of AGC Life Insurance Company, a Missouri
corporation ("AG Missouri") engaged primarily in the life insurance business
and annuity business. AG Missouri, in turn, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
American General Corporation, a Texas holding corporation engaged primarily in
the insurance business.
REGULATION AND RESERVES
AGL is subject to regulation and supervision by the insurance departments of
the states in which it is licensed to do business. This regulation covers a
variety of areas, including benefit reserve requirements, adequacy of
insurance company capital and surplus, various operational standards, and
accounting and financial reporting procedures. AGL's operations and accounts
are subject to periodic examination by insurance regulatory authorities.
Under insurance guaranty fund laws in most states, insurers doing business
therein can be assessed up to prescribed limits for insurance contract losses,
if covered, incurred by insolvent companies. The amount of any future
assessments of AGL under these laws cannot be reasonably estimated. Most of
these laws do provide, however, that an assessment may be excused or deferred
if it would threaten an insurer's own financial strength.
Although the federal government generally has not directly regulated the
business of insurance, federal initiatives often have an impact on the
business in a variety of ways. Federal measures that may adversely affect the
insurance business include employee benefit regulation, tax law changes
affecting the taxation of insurance companies or of insurance products,
changes in the relative desirability of various personal investment vehicles,
and removal of impediments on the entry of banking institutions into the
business of insurance. Also, both the executive and legislative branches of
the federal government have under consideration various insurance regulatory
matters, which could ultimately result in direct federal regulation of some
aspects of the insurance business. It is not possible to predict whether this
will occur or, if so, what the effect on AGL would be.
Pursuant to state insurance laws and regulations, AGL is obligated to carry on
its books, as liabilities, reserves to meet its obligations under outstanding
insurance contracts. These reserves are based on assumptions about, among
other things, future claims experience and investment returns. Neither the
reserve requirements nor the other aspects of state insurance regulation
provide absolute protection to holders of insurance contracts, including the
Contracts, if AGL were to incur claims or expenses at rates significantly
higher than expected, for example, due to acquired immune deficiency syndrome
or other infectious diseases or catastrophes, or significant unexpected losses
on its investments.
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
The consolidated financial statements of AGL and the financial statements of
Separate Account D included in this Statement of Additional Information have
been audited by Ernst & Young LLP,
2
<PAGE>
independent auditors, as set forth in their respective reports thereon
appearing elsewhere herein. Such financial statements have been included in
this Statement of Additional Information in reliance upon such reports of
Ernst & Young LLP given upon the authority of such firm as experts in
accounting and auditing. Ernst & Young LLP is located at One Houston Center,
1221 McKinney, Suite 2400, Houston, TX 77010-2007.
SERVICES
A Service Agreement exists between AGL and Continuum Computer Systems, Inc.
("Continuum") to provide certain services in connection with Separate Account
D. Continuum has developed a computerized data processing record keeping
system for annuity accounting and has the necessary data processing equipment
and personnel to provide and support remote terminal access to its system for
the maintenance of annuity records, processing information, and the generation
of output with respect to the records and information. AGL has contracted with
Continuum for the right to use Continuum's system. For these services AGL paid
Continuum $28,080 in 1995, $78,840 in 1994, and $62,691 in 1993.
PRINCIPAL UNDERWRITER
American General Securities Incorporated ("AGSI") is the principal underwriter
with respect to the Contracts. AGSI also serves as principal underwriter to
American General Life Insurance Company of New York Separate Account E and
AGL's Separate Account A, both of which are unit investment trusts registered
under the Investment Company Act of 1940. AGSI, a Texas corporation, is a
wholly owned subsidiary of AGL and a member of the National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc.
As principal underwriter, with respect to Separate Account D, AGSI received
from AGL less than $1,000 of compensation for each of the last three fiscal
years.
The securities offered pursuant to the Contracts are offered on a continuous
basis.
ANNUITY PAYMENTS
A. GENDER OF ANNUITANT
When annuity payments are based on life expectancy, the amount of each annuity
payment ordinarily will be higher if the Annuitant or other measuring life is
a male, as compared with a female under an otherwise identical Contract. This
is because, statistically, females tend to have longer life expectancies than
males.
However, there will be no differences between males and females in any
jurisdiction, including Montana, where such differences are not permitted. We
will also make available Contracts with no such differences in connection with
certain employer-sponsored benefit plans. Employers should be aware that,
under most such plans, Contracts that make distinctions based on gender are
prohibited by law.
B. MISSTATEMENT OF AGE OR SEX AND OTHER ERRORS
If the age or sex of an Annuitant has been misstated to us, any amount payable
will be that which the purchase payments paid would have purchased at the
correct age and sex. If we made any
3
<PAGE>
overpayments because of incorrect information about age or sex, or any error
or miscalculation, we will deduct the overpayment from the next payment or
payments due. We will add any underpayments to the next payment. The amount of
any adjustment will be credited or charged with interest at the assumed
interest rate used in the Contract's annuity tables.
CHANGE OF INVESTMENT ADVISER OR INVESTMENT POLICY
Unless otherwise required by law or regulation, neither the investment adviser
to any Series nor any investment policy may be changed without the consent of
AGL. If required, approval of or change of any investment objective will be
filed with the insurance department of each state where a Contract has been
delivered. The Owner (or, after annuity payments start, the payee) will be
notified of any material investment policy change that has been approved. You
will be notified of any investment policy change prior to its implementation
by Separate Account D if your comment or vote is required for such change.
TERMS OF EXEMPTIVE RELIEF IN CONNECTION WITH MORTALITY
AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE
AGL and AGSI have obtained exemptive relief from the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC") in connection with deducting the mortality and expense risk
charge pursuant to the Contracts. In the application for the exemption, AGL
and AGSI have represented and undertaken, among other things, that:
o The level of the mortality and expense risk charge is within the
range of industry practice for comparable annuity contracts;
o This conclusion is based upon a review that AGL and AGSI have
conducted of publicly-available information regarding annuity
contracts of other companies which they will maintain at their Home
Office, and make available on request to the Commission or its
staff, a memorandum setting forth the variable annuity products
analyzed and the methodology and results of the comparative review;
o There is a reasonable likelihood that the proposed distribution
financing arrangements with respect to the Contracts will benefit
Separate Account D and investors in the Contracts, and the basis for
this conclusion is set forth in a memorandum which will be
maintained by AGL at its Home Office and will be available to the
Commission or its staff on request.
PERFORMANCE DATA FOR THE DIVISIONS
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURN CALCULATIONS
Each Division may advertise its average annual total return. Each
Division's average annual total return quotation is computed in accordance
with a standard method prescribed by the SEC. The average annual total return
for a Division for a specific period is found by first taking a hypothetical
$1,000 investment in the Division's Accumulation Units on the first day of the
period at the maximum offering price, which is the Accumulation Unit value per
unit ("initial investment"), and computing the ending redeemable value
("redeemable value") of that investment at the end of the period. The
redeemable value reflects the effect of the applicable Surrender Charge that
may be imposed at the end of the period as well as all other recurring charges
and fees applicable under the Contract to all Owner accounts. Such other
charges and fees include the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge, the
Administrative Expense Charge, and the Annual
4
<PAGE>
Contract Fee. Any premium taxes are not reflected. The redeemable value is
then divided by the initial investment and this quotient is taken to the Nth
root (N represents the number of years in the period) and 1 is subtracted from
the result, which is then expressed as a percentage.
TOTAL RETURN CALCULATIONS (WITHOUT SURRENDER CHARGE OR ANNUAL CONTRACT FEE)
Each Division may also advertise its non-standardized total return, which
is calculated in the same manner and for the same time periods as the
standardized average annual total returns described immediately above, except
that the redeemable value does not reflect the deduction of any applicable
Surrender Charge that may be imposed at the end of the period, since it is
assumed that the Contract will continue through the end of each period, or the
deduction of the Annual Contract Fee. If reflected, these charges would reduce
the performance results presented.
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURN CALCULATIONS
No standardized formula has been prescribed by the SEC for calculating
cumulative total return performance. Cumulative total return performance is
the compound rate of return on a hypothetical initial investment of $1,000 in
each Division's Accumulation Units on the first day of the period at the
maximum offering price, which is the Accumulation Unit value per unit
("initial investment"). Cumulative total return figures (and the related
"Growth of a $1,000 Investment" figures set forth below) do not include the
effect of any premium taxes or any applicable Surrender Charge or the Annual
Contract Fee. Cumulative total return quotations reflect changes in
Accumulation Unit value and are calculated by finding the cumulative rates of
return of the hypothetical initial investment over various periods, according
to the following formula, and then expressing that as a percentage:
C = (ERV/P) - 1
Where:
C = cumulative total return
P = a hypothetical initial investment of $1,000
ERV = ending redeemable value is the value at the end of the
applicable period of a hypothetical $1,000 investment made
at the beginning of the applicable period.
HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE
The tables below provide hypothetical performance information for certain
of the available Divisions of Separate Account D based on the actual
historical performance of the corresponding Series in which each of these
Divisions invests. This information reflects all actual charges and deductions
of these Series and all Separate Account charges and deductions, with respect
to the Contracts, that hypothetically would have been made had the Separate
Account, with respect to the Contracts, been invested in these Series for all
the periods indicated.

YIELD CALCULATIONS
The yields for the Domestic Income Division and the Government Division are
each computed in accordance with a standard method prescribed by the SEC. The
hypothetical yields for the Domestic Income Division and the Government
Division, based upon the one month period ended December 31, 1995, were 6.61%
and 5.28%, respectively. The yield quotation is computed by dividing the net
investment income per Accumulation Unit earned during the specified one month
or 30-day period by the Accumulation Unit values on the last day of the
period, according to the following formula that assumes a semi-annual
reinvestment of income:
a - b 6
YIELD = 2[(------- +1) - 1]
cd
a = net dividends and interest earned during the period by the Portfolio
attributable to the Division
b = expenses accrued for the period (net of reimbursements)
c = the average daily number of Accumulation Units outstanding during the
period
d = the Accumulation Unit value per unit on the last day of the period
The yield of each Division reflects the deduction of all recurring fees and
charges applicable to each Division, such as the Mortality and Expense Risk
Charge, and the Administrative Expense Charge but does not reflect the
deduction of Surrender Charges or premium taxes.
MONEY MARKET DIVISION YIELD AND EFFECTIVE YIELD CALCULATIONS
The Money Market Division's yield is computed in accordance with a
standard method prescribed by the SEC. Under that method, the current yield
quotation is based on a seven-day period and computed as follows: the net
change in the Accumulation Unit value during the period is divided by the
Accumulation Unit value at the beginning of the period to obtain the base
period return; the base period return is then multiplied by the fraction 365/7
to obtain the current yield figure, which is carried to the nearest
one-hundredth of one percent. Realized capital gains or losses and unrealized
appreciation or depreciation of the Division's Portfolio are not included in
the calculation. The Money Market Division's hypothetical historical yield for
the seven day period ended December 31, 1995 was 3.75%.
The Money Market Division's effective yield is determined by taking the
base period return (computed as described above) and calculating the effect of
assumed compounding. The formula for the effective yield is: (base period
return +1)365/7-1. The Money Market Division's hypothetical historical
effective yield for the seven day period ended December 31, 1995 was 3.82%.
Yield and effective yield do not reflect the deduction of Surrender Charges or
premium taxes that may be imposed upon the redemption of Accumulation Units.

PERFORMANCE COMPARISONS
The performance of each or all of the available Divisions of Separate
Account D may be compared in advertisements and sales literature to the
performance of other variable annuity issuers in general or to the performance
of particular types of variable annuities investing in mutual funds, or series
of mutual funds, with investment objectives similar to each of the Divisions
of Separate Account D. Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. ("Lipper") and the
Variable Annuity Research and Data Service ("VARDSR") are independent services
which monitor and rank the performance of variable annuity issuers in each of
the major categories of investment objectives on an industry-wide basis.
Lipper's rankings include variable life issuers as well as variable annuity
issuers. VARDSR rankings compare only variable annuity issuers. The
performance analyses prepared by Lipper and VARDSR rank such issuers on the
basis of total return, assuming reinvestment of dividends and distributions,
but do not take sales charges, redemption fees or certain expense deductions
at the separate account level into consideration. In addition, VARDSR prepares
risk adjusted rankings, which consider the effects of market risk on total
return performance.
In addition, each Division's performance may be compared in
advertisements and sales literature to the following benchmarks: (1) the
Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index, an unmanaged weighted index
of 500 leading domestic companies that represents approximately 80% of the
market capitalization of the United States equity market; (2) the Dow Jones
Industrial Average, an unmanaged unweighted average of thirty blue chip
industrial corporations listed on the New York Stock Exchange and generally
considered representative of the United States stock market; (3) the Consumer
Price Index, published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, a statistical
measure of change, over time, in the prices of goods and services in major
expenditure groups and generally is considered to be a measure of inflation;
(4) the Lehman Brothers Government and Domestic Strategic Income Index, the
Salomon Brothers High Grade Domestic Strategic Income Index, and the Merrill
Lynch Government/Corporate Master Index, unmanaged indices that are generally
considered to represent the performance of intermediate and long term bonds
during various market cycles; and (5) the Morgan Stanley Capital International
Europe Australia Far East Index, an unmanaged index that is considered to be
generally representative of major non-United States stock markets.
EFFECT OF TAX-DEFERRED ACCUMULATION
The Contracts qualify for tax-deferred treatment on earnings. This
tax-deferred treatment increases the amount available for accumulation by
deferring taxes on any earnings until the earnings are withdrawn. The longer
the taxes are deferred, the more the accumulation potential effectively grows
over the term of the Contracts.
The hypothetical tables set out below illustrate this potential. The
tables compare accumulations based on a single initial purchase payment of
$100,000 compounded annually under (1) a Contract, under which earnings are
not taxed until withdrawn in connection with a full surrender, partial
withdrawal, or annuitization, or termination due to insufficient Account Value
("withdrawal of earnings") and (2) an investment under which earnings are
taxed on a current basis ("Taxable Investment"), based on an assumed tax rate
of 28%, and the assumed earning rates specified.

The hypothetical tables do not reflect any fees or charges imposed under
a Contract or Taxable Investment. However, the Contracts impose a Mortality
and Expense Risk Charge of 1.25%, a Surrender Charge (applicable to withdrawal
of earnings for the first seven Contract years) up to a maximum of 6%, an
Administrative Expense Charge of 0.15%, and an Annual Contract Fee of $30. A
Taxable Investment could incur comparable fees or charges. Fees and charges
would reduce the return from a Contract or Taxable Investment.
Under the Contracts, a withdrawal of earnings is subject to tax, and may
be subject to an additional 10% penalty before age 59 1/2.
These tables are only illustrations of the effect of tax-deferred
accumulations and are not a guarantee of future performance.

Report of Independent Auditors
Board of Directors of
American General Life Insurance Company
and Contract Owners of
American General Life Insurance Company
Separate Account D
We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets of American
General Life Insurance Company (the "Company") Separate Account D as of
December 31, 1995, the related statement of operations for the year then ended
and the 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. Our
procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31,1995,
by correspondence with the transfer agents. 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 American General
Life Insurance Company Separate Account D at December 31, 1995, the results of
its operations for the year then ended and the changes in its net assets for
each of the two years in the period then ended, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

Note B - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies & Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements of the Divisions of the Separate
Account have been prepared on the basis of generally accepted accounting
principles ("GAAP"). The accounting principles followed by the Divisions and
the methods of applying those principles are presented below or in the
footnotes which follow:
Security Valuation - The investment in shares of Van Kampen, AGSPC,
Fidelity, Neuberger & Berman and Sierra mutual funds are valued at the closing
net asset value (market) per share as determined by the fund on the day of
measurement.
Security transactions and related investment income - Security
transactions are accounted for on the date the order to buy or sell is
executed (trade date). Dividend income and distributions of capital gains are
recorded on the ex-dividend date and reinvested upon receipt. Realized gains
and losses from security transactions are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
Administrative expenses and mortality and expense risk charge -
Deductions for administrative expenses and mortality and expense risks assumed
by the Company are calculated daily, at an annual rate, on the average daily
net asset value of the Separate Account and are paid to the Company.
An annual maintenance charge may be imposed on the last day of each
contract year during the accumulation period for administrative expenses with
respect to each contract. A surrender charge is applicable to certain
withdrawal amounts and is payable to the Company. The deductions are as
follows for the period ended December 31, 1995:

Asset Management, Inc., The Variable Annuity Life Insurance Company ("VALIC"),
Fidelity Management & Research Company, Neuberger & Berman Management
Incorporated and Sierra Investment Advisors Corporation, a monthly fee based
on the fund's average net asset value.
Annuity Reserves - Sierra Advantage and VAriety Plus annuity reserves are
computed for currently payable contracts according to the 1983a Individual
Annuity Mortality Table projected under Scale G factors at an assumed interest
rate of 3.5%. The other contracts annuity reserves are computed for currently
payable contracts according to the Progressive Annuity Mortality Table at an
assumed interest rate of 3%. Charges to annuity reserves for mortality and
expense risks experience are reimbursed to the Company if the reserves
required are less than originally estimated. If additional reserves are
required, the Company reimburses the separate account.

Note D - Federal Income Taxes
The Company is taxed as a life insurance company under the Internal
Revenue Code and includes the operations of the Separate Account in
determining its federal income tax liability. Under existing federal income
tax law, the investment income and capital gains from sale of investments
realized by the Separate Account are not taxable. Therefore, no federal income
tax provision has been made.

Report of Independent Auditors
Board of Directors
American General Life Insurance Company
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of American
General Life Insurance Company (a wholly owned subsidiary of American General
Corporation) and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
related consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity, and cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995. 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 consolidated financial position of American General
Life Insurance Company and subsidiaries at December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 1995, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
As discussed in Note 1.2 to the financial statements, in 1993 the Company
changed certain of its accounting methods as a result of adopting new,
required accounting standards.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 1994
NATURE OF OPERATIONS
American General Life Insurance Company (the "Company") is a wholly owned
subsidiary of AGC Life Insurance Company, which is a wholly owned subsidiary
of American General Corporation (the "Parent Company"). The Company's wholly
owned life insurance subsidiaries are American General Life Insurance Company
of New York ("AGNY") and the Variable Annuity Life Insurance Company
("VALIC").
The Company offers a complete portfolio of the standard forms of universal
life, interest-sensitive whole life, term life, fixed and variable annuities
throughout the United States, and a variety of equity products through its
broker/dealer, American General Securities Incorporated. In addition, the
Company recently entered into the structured settlement arena. The Company
serves the estate planning needs of middle- and upper-income households and
the insurance needs of small- to medium-size businesses. AGNY offers a broad
array of traditional and interest-sensitive insurance, in addition to
individual annuity products. VALIC provides tax-deferred retirement annuities
and employer-sponsored retirement plans to employees of healthcare, education,
public sector, and other not-for-profit organizations throughout the United
States.
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1.1 PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). These principles are
established primarily by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") and
the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect (1) the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, (2) disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, and (3) the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
Ultimate results could differ from those estimates.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and
its wholly owned life insurance subsidiaries, AGNY and VALIC. Transactions
with the Parent Company and other subsidiaries of the Parent Company are not
eliminated from the financial statements of the Company. All other material
intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
1.2 ACCOUNTING CHANGES
During 1995, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
("SFAS") 120, "Accounting and Reporting by Mutual Life Insurance Enterprises
and by Enterprises for Certain Long-Duration Participating Contracts," and
SFAS 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of." SFAS 120 establishes accounting for
certain participating life insurance contracts. SFAS 121 establishes
accounting standards for (1) the impairment of long-lived assets, certain
identifiable intangibles, and goodwill related to those assets to be held and
used in the business, and (2) long-lived assets and certain identifiable
intangibles to be disposed of. With the adoption of SFAS 121, the Company
measures impairment of certain investment real estate based on fair value,
rather than net realizable value as previously required. Adoption of these
standards did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial
statements.
During 1994, the Company adopted the following accounting standards:
SFAS 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - Income
Recognition and Disclosures." This standard requires disclosures about
the recorded investment in certain impaired loans and the recognition of
related interest income (see Note 2.4). This standard did not impact the
consolidated financial statements.
SFAS 119, "Disclosure About Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair
Value of Financial Instruments" requires additional disclosures about
derivative financial instruments and amends existing fair value
disclosure requirements (see Notes 6 and 7). This standard did not impact
the consolidated financial statements.
Effective January 1, 1993, the Company adopted the following accounting
standards:
SFAS 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than
Pensions," resulted in a one-time reduction of net income of $4 million.
This standard requires accrual of a liability for postretirement benefits
other than pensions.
SFAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," resulted in a one-time decrease
of net income of $19 million. This standard changes the way income tax
expense is determined for financial reporting purposes.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
1.2 ACCOUNTING CHANGES (CONTINUED)
SFAS 112, "Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits," resulted
in a one-time reduction of net income of $1 million. This standard
requires the accrual of benefits provided to employees after employment
but before retirement.
SFAS 113, "Accounting and Reporting for Reinsurance of Short-Duration and
Long-Duration Contracts," requires that reinsurance receivables and
prepaid reinsurance premiums be reported as assets, rather than netted
against the related insurance liabilities. This standard did not have a
material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
SFAS 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," requires
that certain impaired loans be reported at either the present value of
expected future cash flows, the loan's observable market price, or the
fair value of underlying collateral. This standard did not have a
material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
At December 31, 1993, the Company adopted SFAS 115, "Accounting for
Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." This statement
requires that debt and equity securities be carried at fair value unless
the company has the positive intent and ability to hold these investments
to maturity. Debt and equity securities must be classified into one of
three categories: (1) held-to-maturity, (2) available-for-sale, or (3)
trading securities. At December 31, 1993, the Company classified all debt
and equity securities as available-for-sale and recorded net unrealized
gains on fixed maturity securities (net of applicable deferred income
taxes) of $411 million to shareholders' equity.

1.3 STATUTORY ACCOUNTING
The Company and its wholly owned life insurance subsidiaries are required to
file financial statements with state regulatory authorities. State insurance
laws prescribe accounting practices for calculating statutory net income and
equity. In addition, state regulators may allow permitted statutory accounting
practices that differ from prescribed practices. The use of such permitted
practices by the Company and its wholly owned life insurance subsidiaries did
not have a material effect on the statutory equity at December 31, 1995.
Statutory financial statements differ from GAAP. Significant differences were

</TABLE>

<PAGE>
American General Life Insurance Company
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
1.3 STATUTORY ACCOUNTING (CONTINUED)
The more significant differences between GAAP and statutory accounting
principles are that under GAAP: (a) acquisition costs related to acquiring new
business are deferred and amortized over the expected lives of the policies
rather than being charged to operations as incurred; (b) future policy
benefits are based on estimates of mortality, interest, and withdrawals
generally representing the companies' experience, which may differ from those
based on statutory mortality and interest requirements without consideration
of withdrawals; (c) deferred federal income taxes are provided for significant
timing differences between income reported for financial reporting purposes
and income reported for federal income tax purposes; (d) certain assets
(principally furniture and equipment, agents' debit balances, and certain
other receivables) are reported as assets rather than being charged to
retained earnings; (e) acquisitions are accounted for using the purchase
method of accounting rather than being accounted for as equity investments;
and (f) fixed maturity investments are carried at fair value rather than
amortized cost.
1.4 INSURANCE CONTRACTS
The insurance contracts accounted for in these financial statements include
primarily long-duration contracts. Long-duration contracts include traditional
whole life, endowment, guaranteed renewable term life, universal life, limited
payment, and investment contracts. Long-duration contracts generally require
the performance of various functions and services over a period of more than
one year. The contract provisions generally cannot be changed or canceled by
the insurer during the contract period. However, most new contracts written by
the Company allow the insurer to revise certain elements used in determining
premium rates or policy benefits subject to guarantees stated in the
contracts.
1.5 INVESTMENTS
FIXED MATURITY AND EQUITY SECURITIES
All fixed maturity and equity securities are currently classified as
available-for-sale and recorded at fair value. After adjusting related balance
sheet accounts as if the unrealized gains (losses) had been realized, the net
adjustment is recorded in net unrealized gains (losses) on securities within
shareholders' equity. If the fair value of a security classified
36
<PAGE>
American General Life Insurance Company
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
1.5 INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED)
as available-for-sale declines below its cost and this decline is considered
to be other than temporary, the security is reduced to its fair value, and the
reduction is recorded as a realized loss.
MORTGAGE LOANS
Mortgage loans are reported at amortized cost, net of an allowance for losses.
The allowance for losses covers all nonperforming loans, consisting of loans
restructured or delinquent 60 days or more. The allowance also covers loans
for which there is concern based on management's assessment of risk factors,
such as potential nonpayment or nonmonetary default. The allowance is based on
a loan-specific review and a formula that reflects past results and current
trends.
Impaired loans, those for which the Company determines that it is probable
that all amounts due under the contractual terms will not be collected, are
reported at the lower of amortized cost or fair value of the underlying
collateral, less estimated costs to sell.
POLICY LOANS
Policy loans are reported at unpaid principal balances adjusted periodically
for uncollectible amounts.
INVESTMENT REAL ESTATE
Investment real estate consists of income-producing real estate, foreclosed
real estate, and the American General Center, an office complex in Houston.
During 1995, the Company adopted SFAS 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." Under SFAS
121, investment real estate is classified as held for investment or available
for sale, depending on management's intent.
The Company classifies all investment real estate, except the American General
Center, as available for sale. Real estate available for sale is carried at
the lower of cost (less accumulated depreciation at December 31, 1994, prior
to adoption of SFAS 121) or fair value less cost to sell. Changes in estimates
of fair value less cost to sell are recognized as realized gains (losses)
through a valuation allowance.
37
<PAGE>
American General Life Insurance Company
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
1.5 INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED)
At December 31, 1995, real estate held for investment is carried at cost, less
accumulated depreciation and impairment reserves and write-downs, if
applicable. Impairment losses are recorded whenever circumstances indicate
that a property might be impaired and the estimated undiscounted cash flows to
be generated by the property are less than the carrying amount. In such event,
the property is written down to fair value, determined by observable market
prices, third-party appraisals, or expected future cash flows discounted at
market rates. Any write-down is recognized as a realized loss, and a new cost
basis is established.
Prior to 1995, real estate held for investment was carried at cost less
accumulated depreciation and an allowance for any impairment in value. When
the net realizable value was less than the carrying value, the deficiency was
recognized as a realized loss through a valuation allowance specifically
identified with the associated real estate asset.
INVESTMENT INCOME
Interest on fixed maturity securities and performing mortgage loans is
recorded as income when earned and is adjusted for any amortization of premium
or discount. Interest on restructured mortgage loans is recorded as income
when earned based on the new contractual rate. Interest on delinquent mortgage
loans is recorded as income on a cash basis. Dividends are recorded as income
on ex-dividend dates.
REALIZED INVESTMENT GAINS OR LOSSES
Realized investment gains or losses are recognized using the specific
identification method and include declines in fair value of investments below
cost that are considered to be other than temporary.
1.6 SEPARATE ACCOUNTS
Separate accounts are assets and liabilities associated with certain
contracts, principally annuities. The investment risk lies solely with the
holder of the contract rather than the Company. Consequently, the insurer's
liability for these accounts equals the value of the account assets.
Investment income, realized investment gains (losses), and policyholder
38
<PAGE>
American General Life Insurance Company
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
1.6 SEPARATE ACCOUNTS (CONTINUED)
account deposits and withdrawals related to Separate Accounts are excluded
from the consolidated statements of income and cash flows. Assets held in
Separate Accounts are primarily shares in mutual funds, which are carried at
fair value, based on the quoted net asset value per share.
1.7 DEFERRED POLICY ACQUISITION COSTS ("DPAC")
The costs of writing an insurance policy, including agents' commissions,
underwriting and marketing expenses, are deferred and included in the DPAC
asset.
DPAC associated with interest-sensitive life contracts, insurance investment
contracts, and participating life insurance contracts is charged to expense in
relation to the estimated gross profits of those contracts. DPAC associated
with all other insurance contracts is charged to expense over the
premium-paying period, or as the premiums are earned over the life of the
contracts.
Gross profits include realized investment gains (losses). In addition, DPAC is
adjusted for the impact on estimated future gross profits as if net unrealized
gains (losses) on securities had been realized at the balance sheet date. The
impact of this adjustment is included in the net unrealized gains (losses) on
securities within shareholders' equity.
The Company reviews the carrying value of DPAC on at least an annual basis. In
determining whether the carrying amount is appropriate, the Company considers
estimated future gross profits or future premiums, as applicable for the type
of contract. In all cases, the Company considers expected mortality, interest
earned and credited rates, persistency and expenses. The reported value and
the remaining life of DPAC are considered appropriate.

classified as deposits instead of revenue. Revenues for these contracts
consist of mortality, expense, and surrender charges assessed against the
account balance. Policy charges that are designed to compensate the Company
for future services are deferred and recognized in income over the period
earned using the same assumptions used to amortize DPAC (see Note 1.7).
For limited payment contracts, net premiums are recorded as revenue and the
difference between the gross premium received and the net premium is deferred
and recognized in income in a constant relationship to insurance in force. For
all other long-duration contracts, premiums are recognized when due. When the
revenue is recorded, an estimate of the cost of the related benefit is
recorded in the future policy benefits account on the consolidated balance
sheets. Also, this cost is recorded in the consolidated statements of income
as a benefit in the current year and in all future years during which the
policy is expected to be renewed.

1.9 SALE OF SUBSIDIARY
On November 29, 1993, the Parent Company announced its intent to offer the
Company's wholly owned life insurance subsidiary, American-Amicable Life
Insurance Company of Texas, for sale. On August 31, 1994, the Company
completed the sale of American-Amicable Life Insurance Company of Texas to
PennCorp Financial Group, Inc., resulting in a net loss of $19.5 million.
1.10 OTHER ASSETS
Other assets were comprised of the following:

================================
</TABLE>
Acquisition-related goodwill is charged to expense in equal amounts over 40
years. The carrying value of goodwill is regularly reviewed for indicators of
impairment in value.
In 1993, the Company recorded a noncash charge of $293 million to reduce
acquisition-related goodwill. The write-down was the result of a strategic
review completed in 1993 of the Company's operations by management and outside
advisors, which indicated the book value of the Company exceeded fair value.
After this charge, the reported value and remaining life of
acquisition-related goodwill are considered appropriate.
This review also resulted in the decision to sell American-Amicable Life
Insurance Company of Texas and its subsidiaries (see Note 1.9).

1.11 DEPRECIATION
Provision for depreciation of American General Center, data processing
equipment, and furniture and fixtures is computed on the straight-line method
over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
1.12 Policy and Contract Claims Reserves
Substantially all of the Company's insurance and annuity liabilities relate to
long-duration contracts which generally require performance over a period of
more than one year. The contract provisions normally cannot be changed or
canceled by the Company during the contract period.
For interest-sensitive and investment contracts, reserves are equal to the sum
of the policy account balance and deferred revenue charges. In establishing
reserves for limited payment and other long-duration contracts, an estimate is
made of the cost of future policy benefits to be paid as a result of present
and future claims due to death, disability, surrender of a policy, and payment
of an endowment. Reserves for traditional insurance products are determined
using the net level premium method. Based on past experience, consideration is
given to the number of policyholder deaths that might be expected, policy
lapses, surrenders, and terminations. Consideration is also given to the
possibility that the Company's experience with policyholders will be worse
than expected. Interest assumptions used to compute reserves ranged from 2.5%
to 13.5% at December 31, 1995.
The claim reserves are determined using case-basis evaluation and statistical
analyses and represent estimates of the ultimate net cost of unpaid claims.
These estimates are reviewed and as adjustments become necessary, such
adjustments are reflected in current operations. Since these reserves are
based on estimates, the ultimate settlement of claims may vary from the
amounts included in the accompanying financial statements. Although it is not
possible to measure the degree of variability inherent in such estimates,
management believes claim reserves are reasonable.

1.13 REINSURANCE
The Company is routinely involved in reinsurance transactions. Ceded
reinsurance becomes a liability of the reinsurer that assumes the risk. The
Company diversifies its risk of exposure to reinsurance loss by using several
reinsurers and entering into reinsurance transactions with life reinsurers
that have strong claims-paying ability ratings. The maximum retention on one
life (in the case of individual life insurance) is $1.5 million. If the
reinsurer could not meet its obligations, the Company would reassume the
liability. The likelihood of a material reinsurance liability being reassumed
by the Company is considered to be remote.
Amounts paid or deemed to have been paid in connection with ceded reinsurance
contracts are recorded as reinsurance receivables. The cost of reinsurance
related to long-duration contracts is recognized over the life of the
underlying reinsured policies using assumptions consistent with those used to
account for the underlying policies.
1.14 PARTICIPATING POLICY CONTRACTS
Participating life insurance contracts contain dividend payment provisions
that entitle the policyholder to participate in the earnings of the contracts.
Participating life insurance accounted for 2.48% and 1.81% of life insurance
in force at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Such business is
accounted for in accordance with SFAS 120.
1.15 INCOME TAXES
The Company and its life insurance subsidiaries, together with certain other
life insurance subsidiaries of the Parent Company, are included in a
life/nonlife consolidated tax return with the Parent Company and its
noninsurance subsidiaries. The Company participates in a tax-sharing agreement
with other companies included in the consolidated tax return. Under this
agreement, tax payments are made to the Parent Company as if the companies
filed separate tax returns and companies incurring operating and/or capital
losses are reimbursed for the use of these losses by the consolidated return
group.

Fair values of fixed maturity and equity securities were based on quoted
market prices, where available. For investments not actively traded, fair
values were estimated using values obtained from independent pricing services
or, in the case of private placements, by discounting expected future cash
flows using a current market rate applicable to yield, credit quality, and the
maturity of the investments. The reporting of fixed maturity securities at
fair value without a corresponding revaluation of related policyholder
liabilities can be misinterpreted, and care should be exercised in drawing
conclusions from such data.

3.1 ACCOUNTING POLICY
Income taxes are provided in accordance with SFAS 109 (see Note 1.2). Under
this standard, deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated using the
differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets
and liabilities, using the enacted tax rate. The effect of a tax rate change
is recognized in income in the period of enactment. Under SFAS 109, state
income taxes are included in income tax expense.

A portion of life insurance income earned prior to 1984 is not taxable unless
it exceeds certain statutory limitations or is distributed as dividends. Such
income, accumulated in policyholders' surplus accounts, totaled $93.6 million
at December 31, 1995. At current corporate rates, the maximum amount of tax on
such income is approximately $32.8 million. Deferred income taxes on these
accumulations are not required because no distributions are expected.

life insurance subsidiaries of the Parent Company, file a consolidated federal
income tax return. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has completed
examinations of the Company's returns through 1988. The IRS is continuing to
dispute the Company's tax treatment of some items for the years 1977 through
1988. Some of these issues will require litigation to resolve, and any amounts
ultimately settled with the IRS would also include interest. Although the
final outcome is uncertain, the Company believes that the ultimate liability,
including interest, resulting from these issues will not exceed amounts
currently provided in the consolidated financial statements. The IRS is
currently examining the Company's tax returns for the years 1989 through 1992.
In April 1992, the IRS issued Notices of Deficiency for the 1977 - 1981 tax
years of certain insurance subsidiaries. The basis of the dispute was the tax
treatment of modified coinsurance agreements. The Company elected to pay all
related assessments plus associated interest. A claim for refund of tax and
interest was disallowed by the IRS in January 1993. On June 30, 1993, a suit
for refund was filed in the United States Court of Federal Claims. On February
7, 1996, the court ruled in favor of the Company on all legal issues related
to this contingency. The Company does not yet know whether the IRS will appeal
this decision; however, the Company intends to pursue a full refund of the
amounts paid. Accordingly, no provision has been made in the consolidated
financial statements related to this contingency.

5. BENEFIT PLANS
5.1 PENSION PLANS
The Company has a noncontributory, defined-benefit pension plan covering most
employees. The pension plan provides pension benefits that are based on the
participant's average monthly compensation and length of credited service
offset by an amount that complies with federal regulations. The Company's
funding policy for this plan is to contribute annually no more than the
maximum amount that can be deducted for federal income tax purposes. The
Company uses the projected unit credit method for computing pension expense.
The components of pension expense were as follows:

5.2 POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS OTHER THAN PENSIONS
The Company and its life insurance subsidiaries, together with certain other
insurance subsidiaries of the Parent Company, have life, supplemental major
medical, and dental plans for certain retired employees and agents. Most plans
are contributory, with retiree contributions adjusted annually to limit
employer contributions to predetermined amounts. For individuals retiring
after December 31, 1992, the cost of the supplemental major medical plan is
borne entirely by retirees. The Company has reserved the right to change or
eliminate these benefits at any time.

5.2 POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS OTHER THAN PENSIONS (CONTINUED)
The life plans are fully insured. A portion of the retiree medical and dental
plans are funded through a voluntary employees' beneficiary association
("VEBA") established in 1994; the remainder is unfunded and self-insured. All
of the retiree medical and dental plans' assets held in the VEBA were invested
in readily marketable securities at the plans' most recent balance sheet date.

5.2 POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS OTHER THAN PENSIONS (CONTINUED)
For measurement purposes, an 11.5% annual rate of increase in the per capita
cost of covered health care benefits was assumed in 1996; the rate was assumed
to decrease gradually to 6.0% in 2007 and remain at that level. A 1% increase
in the assumed annual rate of increase in per capita cost of health care
benefits results in a $545,584 increase in accumulated postretirement benefit
obligation and a $47,104 increase in postretirement benefit expense.
6. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
6.1 USE OF DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company's objectives for using interest rate swap agreements on its
investment securities are to effectively convert specific investment
securities from a floating to a fixed-rate basis, or vice versa, and to hedge
against the risk of rising prices on anticipated investment security
purchases.
The Company's objectives for using currency swap agreements are to effectively
convert cash flows from specific investment securities denominated in foreign
currencies into U.S. dollars at specified exchange rates and to hedge against
currency rate fluctuations on anticipated investment security purchases.
Derivative financial instruments related to investment securities, which were
not used prior to 1994, did not have a material effect on net investment
income in 1995 or 1994. The Company is neither a dealer nor a trader in
derivative financial instruments.
6.2 CREDIT AND MARKET RISK
The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by
counterparties to swap agreements. The Company limits its exposure to credit
risk by entering into swap agreements with counterparties having high credit
ratings, basing the amount and term of agreements on these credit ratings, and
regularly monitoring the ratings.

American General Life Insurance Company
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
6. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)
6.2 CREDIT AND MARKET RISK (CONTINUED)
The Company's credit exposure on swaps is limited to the fair value of swap
agreements that are favorable to the Company. The Company does not expect any
counterparty to fail to meet its obligation; however, nonperformance would not
have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
The Company's exposure to market risk is mitigated by the offsetting effects
of changes in the value of swap agreements and of the related investment
securities.
6.3 ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The difference between amounts paid and received on swap agreements is
recorded on an accrual basis as an adjustment to investment income, as
appropriate, over the periods covered by the agreements. The related amount
payable to or receivable from counterparties is included in other liabilities
or assets.
The fair values of the swap agreements are recognized in the consolidated
balance sheet if they hedge investment securities carried at fair value or
anticipated investment purchases. In this event, changes in the fair value of
a swap agreement are reported in net unrealized gains (losses) on securities
included in shareholders' equity, consistent with the treatment of the related
investment security.
For swap agreements hedging anticipated investment security purchases, the net
swap settlement amount or unrealized gain or loss is deferred and included in
the measurement of the anticipated transaction when it occurs.
Any gain or loss from early termination of swap agreements is recognized in
income if the related investment security is sold. Otherwise, the gain or loss
from early termination is deferred and amortized into income over the
remaining term of the related investment security.

6.4 TERMS OF DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Derivative financial instruments related to investment securities at December
31 were as follows:

Average receive rate 7.03% 6.92%
Average pay rate 6.82 6.96
Currency swap agreements (receive U.S. $/pay Canadian
dollar):
Notional amount (in U.S. $) 72 -
Average exchange rate 1.62 -
</TABLE>
Average floating rates may change significantly, thereby affecting future cash
flows. Swap agreements generally have terms of two to ten years.
At December 31, 1995, the Company had entered into forward interest rate swap
agreements with effective dates in 1996. These swaps, with a total notional
amount of $14.5 million, were entered into to hedge anticipated investment
purchases expected to occur in 1996 and to synthetically modify the yield on
specific fixed-rate securities.
7. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
SFAS 107, "Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires
disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments. This standard excludes
certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments, including
policyholder liabilities, from its disclosure requirements. Care should be
exercised in drawing conclusions based on fair
62

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
7. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)
value, since (1) the fair values presented do not include the value associated
with all of the Company's assets and liabilities and (2) the reporting of
investments at fair value without a corresponding revaluation of related
policyholder liabilities can be misinterpreted.
Carrying amounts and fair values for those financial instruments covered by
SFAS 107 at December 31 are presented below:
<TABLE>

</FN>
</TABLE>
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values of
financial instruments:
FIXED MATURITY AND EQUITY SECURITIES
Fair values of fixed maturity and equity securities were based on quoted
market prices, where available. For investments not actively traded, fair
values were estimated using values obtained from independent pricing services
or, in the case of private placements, by discounting expected future cash
flows using a current market rate applicable to yield, credit quality, and
average life of investments.
63
<PAGE>
American General Life Insurance Company
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
7. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)
MORTGAGE LOANS ON REAL ESTATE
Fair value of mortgage loans was estimated primarily using discounted cash
flows, based on contractual maturities and discount rates that were based on
U.S. Treasury rates for similar maturity ranges, adjusted for risk, based on
property type.
POLICY LOANS
Fair value of policy loans was estimated using discounted cash flows and
actuarially determined assumptions, incorporating market rates.
INSURANCE INVESTMENT CONTRACTS
Insurance investment contracts do not subject the Company to significant risks
arising from policyholder mortality or morbidity. The majority of the
Company's annuity products are considered insurance investment contracts. Fair
value of insurance investment contracts was estimated using cash flows
discounted at market interest rates. Care should be exercised in drawing
conclusions based on the estimated fair value, since the estimates are based
on assumptions regarding future economic activity.
8. DIVIDENDS PAID
American General Life Insurance Company paid $206.7 million, $239.5 million,
and $3.7 million in dividends during 1995, 1994, and 1993, respectively. The
1995 and 1993 dividends included $.7 million and $3.7 million, respectively,
in the form of furniture and equipment.
9. RESTRICTIONS, COMMITMENTS, AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company and its insurance subsidiaries are restricted by state insurance
laws as to the amounts they may pay as dividends without prior approval from
their respective state insurance departments. At December 31, 1995,
approximately $2.5 billion of consolidated shareholders' equity represents net
assets of the Company which cannot be transferred in the form of dividends,
loans, or advances to the Parent Company. Approximately $1.8 billion of
consolidated shareholders' equity is similarly restricted as to transfer from
its subsidiaries to the Company.
64
<PAGE>
American General Life Insurance Company
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
9. RESTRICTIONS, COMMITMENTS, AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)
Generally, the net assets of the Company's subsidiaries available for transfer
to the Parent are limited to the amounts that the subsidiaries' net assets, as
determined in accordance with statutory accounting practices, exceed minimum
statutory capital requirements. However, payments of such amounts as dividends
may be subject to approval by regulatory authorities and are generally limited
to the greater of 10% of policyholders' surplus or the previous year's
statutory net gain from operations.
The Company has various leases, substantially all of which are for office
space and facilities. Rentals under financing leases, contingent rentals, and
future minimum rental commitments and rental expense under operating leases
are not material.
The Company is a defendant in lawsuits which arose in the ordinary course of
business. The Company believes that it has a valid and substantial defense to
each of these actions and is defending them vigorously. Further, it is the
Company's opinion and the opinion of counsel for the Company that the outcome
of these actions will not have a materially adverse effect on the financial
position or results of operations of the Company.
The increase in the number of insurance companies that are under regulatory
supervision has resulted, and is expected to continue to result, in increased
assessments by state guaranty funds to cover losses to policyholders of
insolvent or rehabilitated insurance companies. Those mandatory assessments
may be partially recovered through a reduction in future premium taxes in
certain states. At December 31, 1995 and 1994, the Company has accrued $21.3
million and $10.4 million, respectively, for guaranty fund assessments, net of
$4.3 million and $2.9 million, respectively, of premium tax deductions. The
Company has recorded receivables of $7.4 million and $6.0 million at December
31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, for expected recoveries against the payment
of future premium taxes. Expenses incurred for guaranty fund assessments were
$22.4 million, $8.7 million, and $8.8 million in 1995, 1994, and 1993,
respectively.

11. OTHER ITEMS
Effective July 31, 1993, the Company acquired the in-force business of the New
Jersey Life Insurance Company in Rehabilitation. The acquisition resulted in
the assumption of approximately 34,000 policies and life insurance in force of
$1.8 billion, with assets transferred of $208 million. No gain or loss was
recorded at acquisition.
Effective December 31, 1995, the Company purchased Franklin United Life
Insurance Company (FULIC), a subsidiary of Franklin Life Insurance Company
(FL) which is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Parent Company. This purchase
was effected through issuance of $8.5 million in preferred stock to FL. The
acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and is
not material to the operations of the Company. Additionally, FULIC was
contributed and merged into AGNY at December 31, 1995.
