SUMMARY OF BENEFITS
AND RISKS
BENEFITS OF YOUR POLICY
FLEXIBILITY -- The policy is designed to be flexible to meet your specific
life insurance needs. You have the flexibility to choose death benefit options,
investment options, Guarantee Periods, and premiums you pay.
DEATH BENEFIT -- While the policy is inforce and when the insured dies, we
pay a death benefit to your beneficiary. You select one of three death benefit
options:
X LEVEL OPTION: The death benefit equals the current Face Amount.
X RETURN OF ACCOUNT VALUE OPTION: The death benefit is the current Face Amount
plus the Account Value of your policy;
X RETURN OF PREMIUM OPTION: The death benefit is the current Face Amount plus
the sum of the scheduled premiums paid.
The death benefit is reduced by any money you owe us, such as outstanding
loans, loan interest, or unpaid charges. You may change your death benefit
option under certain circumstances. You may increase or decrease the Face Amount
on your policy under certain circumstances.
GUARANTEE PERIOD OPTIONS -- You have the ability to choose a Guarantee
Period of one to ten years. During the Guarantee Period, additional contractual
guarantees are provided, including the guarantee that the death benefit will be
no less than the initial Face Amount and the policy will not lapse as long as
certain scheduled premiums are paid or provided for by favorable investment
experience.
INVESTMENT OPTIONS -- You may invest in up to 9 different investment choices
within your policy, from a choice of 36 investment options and a Fixed Account.
You may transfer money among your investment choices, subject to restrictions.
PREMIUM PAYMENTS -- You have the flexibility to choose how you pay premiums.
You choose a schedule of premiums when you purchase the policy. You may change
your scheduled premiums, or pay additional premium, subject to certain
limitations.
RIGHT TO EXAMINE YOUR POLICY -- You have a limited right to return the
policy for cancellation after purchase. See "Making Withdrawals From Your Policy
- -- Right to Examine a Policy."
RIGHT TO EXCHANGE YOUR POLICY -- During the first 24 months after your
policy is issued, you may exchange it, without submitting proof of insurability,
for a non-variable life insurance policy offered by us on the life of the
insured.
SURRENDER -- You may surrender your policy at any time prior to the maturity
date for its Cash Surrender Value. You may apply the Cash Surrender Value to a
continuation option as extended term insurance or paid-up insurance. (See "Risks
of Your Policy," below).
LOANS -- You may take a loan on the policy. The policy secures the loan.
SETTLEMENT OPTIONS -- You or your beneficiary may choose to receive the
proceeds of the policy over a period of time by using one of several settlement
options.
OPTIONAL COVERAGE -- You may add other coverages to your policy. See "Your
Policy -- Other Benefits."
WHAT DOES YOUR PREMIUM PAY FOR?
Your premium pays for three things. It pays for insurance coverage, it acts
as an investment in the Sub-Accounts, and it pays for sales loads and other
charges.
RISKS OF YOUR POLICY
INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE -- The value of your policy will fluctuate with the
performance of the investment options you choose. Your investment options may
decline in value, or they may not perform to your expectations. Your policy
values in the Sub-Accounts are not guaranteed.
UNSUITABLE FOR SHORT-TERM SAVINGS -- The policy is designed for long term
financial planning. You should not purchase the policy if you will need the
premium payment in a short time period.
RISK OF LAPSE -- Your policy could terminate if the value of the policy
becomes too low to support the policy's monthly charges, or if you do not pay
your scheduled premium. If this occurs, we will notify you in writing. You will
then have a 61-day grace period to pay additional amounts to prevent the policy
from terminating.
WITHDRAWAL LIMITATIONS -- After the Guarantee Period, partial withdrawals
are allowed. The minimum allowed is $500, and the maximum allowed is the Cash
Surrender Value minus $1,000. One partial withdrawal is allowed per month.
Withdrawals will reduce your policy's death benefit, and may be subject to a
surrender charge.
TRANSFER LIMITATIONS -- We reserve the right to limit the size of transfers
and remaining balances, and to limit the number and frequency of transfers among
your investment options and the Fixed Account.
LOANS -- Taking a loan from your policy may increase the risk that your
policy will lapse, will have a permanent
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY 5
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
effect on the policy's Account Value, and will reduce the death proceeds.
ADVERSE TAX CONSEQUENCES -- You may be subject to income tax if you receive
any loans, withdrawals or other amounts from the policy, and you may be subject
to a 10% penalty tax. Under certain circumstances (usually if you prefund future
benefits in seven years or less), your policy may become a modified endowment
policy under federal tax law. If these circumstances were to occur, loans and
other pre-death distributions are includable in gross income on an income first
basis, and may be subject to a 10% penalty (unless you have attained age
59 1/2). You should consult with a tax adviser before taking steps that may
affect whether your policy becomes a modified endowment policy. See "Taxes."

The following table describes the maximum fees and expenses that you will
pay when buying, owning, and surrendering the policy. The first table describes

SEPARATE ACCOUNT VL I
The Sub-Accounts are subdivisions of our separate account, called Separate
Account VL I. The Separate Account exists to keep your life insurance policy
assets separate from our company assets. As such, the investment performance of
the Separate Account is independent from the investment performance of
Hartford's other assets. Hartford's other assets are utilized to pay you
insurance obligations under the policy. Your assets in the Separate Account are
held exclusively for your benefit and may not be used for any other liability of
Hartford. Separate Account VL I was established on June 8, 1992 under the laws
of Connecticut.
THE FUNDS
The Sub-Accounts of the Separate Account purchase shares of mutual funds set
up exclusively for variable annuity and variable life insurance products. These
funds are not the same mutual funds that you buy through your stockbroker or
through a retail mutual fund, but they may have similar investment strategies
and the same portfolio managers as retail mutual funds. You choose the Sub-
Accounts that meet your investment style.
We do not guarantee the investment results of any of the underlying Funds.
Since each underlying Fund has different investment objectives, each is subject
to different risks. These risks and the Funds' expenses are described in the
prospectuses for the Funds, which are attached to this Prospectus, and the
Funds' Statements of Additional Information, which may be ordered from us. You
should read the following investment objectives and the prospectuses for each of
the Funds listed below for detailed information about each Fund before
investing. All Funds may not be available in all states.

such material conflicts, we will consider what action may be appropriate,
including removing the Fund from the Separate Account or replacing the Fund with
another underlying fund. There are certain risks associated with mixed and
shared funding, as disclosed in the prospectuses for the Funds.
VOTING RIGHTS -- For Sub-Accounts in which you have invested, we will notify
you of shareholder's meetings of the Funds purchased by those Sub-Accounts. We
will send you proxy materials and instructions for you to vote the shares held
for your benefit by those Sub-Accounts. We will arrange for the handling and
tallying of proxies received from you or other policy owners. If you give no
instructions, we will vote those shares in the same proportion as shares for
which we received instructions.
THE FIXED ACCOUNT
You may allocate amounts to the Fixed Account. The Fixed Account is not a
part of the Separate Account, but is a part of our general assets. As such, the
Fixed Account (and this description of the Fixed Account) is not subject to the
same securities laws as the Separate Account.
The Fixed Account credits at least 4% per year. We are not obligated to, but
may, credit more than 4% per year. If we do, such rates are determined at our
sole discretion. You assume the risk that, at any time, the Fixed Account may
credit no more than 4%.
CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS
DEDUCTIONS FROM PREMIUM
Before your premium is allocated to the Sub-Accounts and/or the Fixed
Account, we deduct a percentage from your premium for a sales load and a premium
tax charge. The amount allocated after the deductions is called your Net
Premium.
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY 11
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FRONT-END SALES LOAD -- We deduct a front-end sales load from each premium
you pay. The front-end sales load is based on:
1) the level of scheduled premiums;
2) the length of the Guarantee Period; and
3) the amount of any unscheduled premiums paid.
The maximum front-end sales load is:
- - 50% in the first policy year;
- - 11% in policy years 2 through 10;
- - 3% in policy years 11 and on.
For all Guarantee Periods, the maximum amount of premiums paid in any policy
year that is subject to a front-end sales load is the Guideline Annual Premium.
In addition, if Scheduled Premiums are less than the Guideline Annual Premium,
the maximum amount of premiums paid in the first policy year subject to a
front-end sales load is the Scheduled Premium.
The actual schedule of front-end sales loads for any given policy is
specified in that policy. Generally, the shorter the Guarantee Period, the lower
the front-end sales load. The levels range from those for the ten-year Guarantee
Period described above to 0% on a policy with a One year Guarantee Period.
However, there are other charges under the Policies that are lower for longer
Guarantee Periods.
PREMIUM TAX CHARGE -- We deduct a premium tax charge from each premium you
pay. The premium tax charge covers taxes assessed against us by a state and/or
other governmental entity. The range of such charge generally is between 0% and
4%.
DEDUCTIONS FROM ACCOUNT VALUE
MONTHLY DEDUCTION AMOUNTS -- Each month we will deduct an amount from your
Account Value to pay for the benefits provided by your policy. This amount is
called the Monthly Deduction Amount and equals the sum of:
(1) the charge for the cost of insurance;
(2) the charges for additional benefits provided by rider, if any;
(3) the charges for "special" insurance class rating, if any;
(4) the monthly administrative fee; and
(5) the mortality and expense risk charge
COST OF INSURANCE CHARGE -- The charge for the cost of insurance is equal
to:
(i) the cost of insurance rate per $1,000; multiplied by
(ii) the amount at risk; divided by
(iii) $1,000
On any Monthly Activity Date, the amount at risk equals the death benefit
less the Account Value on that date, prior to assessing the Monthly Deduction
Amount.
The cost of insurance charge is to cover our anticipated mortality costs.
For standard risks, the cost of insurance rate will not exceed those based on
the 1980 Commissioners Standard Ordinary Mortality Table. A table of guaranteed
cost of insurance rates per $1,000 will be included in each policy; however, we
reserve the right to use rates less than those shown in such table. Substandard
risks will be charged a higher cost of insurance rate that will not exceed rates
based on a multiple of the 1980 Commissioners Standard Ordinary Mortality Table.
The multiple will be based on the insured's risk class. We will determine the
cost of insurance rate at the start of each policy year. Any changes in the cost
of insurance rate will be made uniformly for all insureds in the same risk
class.
Because your Account Value and death benefit amount may vary from month to
month, the cost of insurance charge may also vary on each Monthly Activity Date.
RIDER CHARGE -- If your policy includes riders, a charge applicable to the
riders is made from the Account Value each month. The charge applicable to these
riders is to compensate Hartford for the anticipated cost of providing these
benefits and is specified on the applicable rider. For a description of the
riders available, see "Your Policy -- Supplemental Benefits."
SPECIAL CLASS CHARGE -- A charge for a special insurance class rating of an
insured may be made, if applicable, against the Account Value. This charge
compensates Hartford for the additional mortality risk associated with
individuals in such special classes.
MONTHLY ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGE AND ISSUE CHARGE -- We will assess a monthly
administrative charge to compensate us for administrative costs. This charge
covers average expected cost. The monthly administrative charge will be $8.33
per month initially and is guaranteed never to exceed that level during the
Guarantee Period. After the Guarantee Period, the charge is guaranteed never to
exceed $12 per month.
Additionally, we assess a monthly charge in the first policy year to
compensate us for the up-front costs of underwriting and issuing a policy.
Subject to certain maximum levels, such charge currently is equal to $8.33 per
month, plus an amount that varies by issue age and the policy's initial Face
Amount. The monthly issue charge and the
<PAGE>

maximum levels of such charge for some sample issue ages are summarized in the
following chart:

35 $8.33 plus $.0375 per $1,000 of IFA $ 54.17
45 $8.33 plus $.0417 per $1,000 of IFA $ 62.50
55 $8.33 plus $.0625 per $1,000 of IFA $ 62.50
65 $8.33 plus $.0708 per $1,000 of IFA $ 62.50
</TABLE>
- ---------
* "IFA" refers to initial Face Amount
MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE -- We deduct a mortality and expense risk
charge each month from your Account Value. The mortality and expense risk charge
for any Monthly Activity Date is equal to:
(i) the mortality and expense risk rate; multiplied by
(ii) the portion of the Account Value allocated to the Sub-Account on the
Monthly Activity Date prior to assessing the Monthly Deduction Amount.
During the first 20 policy years, the longer the Guarantee Period is, the
lower the mortality and expense risk charge rate will be. For policy years 1
through 20, the mortality and expense risk charge rate ranges from 1.40%
annually for a policy with a one-year Guarantee Period, and decreases as the
length of the Guarantee Period increases, to .60% on a policy with a ten-year
Guarantee Period. After policy year 20, the mortality and expense risk charge
rate for all policies is expected to equal .60% annually. However, we reserve
the right to continue the mortality and expense risk charge rate at the level in
effect during policy years 1 through 20, except for policies with a one year
Guarantee Period, for which we reserve the right to charge a mortality and
expense risk rate of .90%. There are other contractual charges that are higher
for longer Guarantee Periods.
The mortality and expense risk charge compensates us for mortality and
expense risks assumed under the policies. The mortality risk assumed is that the
cost of insurance charges are insufficient to meet actual claims. The expense
risk assumed is that the expense incurred in issuing, distributing and
administering the policies exceed the administrative charges and sales loads
collected. Hartford may keep any difference between cost it incurs and the
charges it collects.
SURRENDER CHARGES -- A surrender charge is assessed against the Account
Value if your policy lapses or is surrendered during the first nine policy
years. The amount of such surrender charge in the first policy year is
established by us based on the premiums paid during the first policy year and
the length of the Guarantee Period. Subject to certain limits imposed by state
insurance laws, the surrender charge decreases by an equal amount each policy
year until it reaches zero during the tenth policy year.
Specifically, the maximum first year surrender charge is equal to the sum of
(i) a specified percentage of the scheduled premium up to the Guideline Annual
Premium and (ii) 5% of the excess of the first year premium over the Guideline
Annual Premium. The longer the Guarantee Period, the higher the percentage used
to calculate the first year surrender charge. Such percentage equals 110% with
respect to policies with a ten-year Guarantee Period and decreases as the
selected Guarantee Period decreases to 10% for policies with a one-year
Guarantee Period. There are other lower contractual charges applicable to longer
Guarantee Periods.
The schedule of surrender charges for a policy is set forth in that policy.
Additionally, your sales agent, upon request, will provide a schedule of
surrender charges which would apply under any given circumstances.

CHARGES FOR THE FUNDS
The investment performance of each Fund reflects the management fee that the
Fund pays to its investment manager as well as other operating expenses that the
Fund incurs. Investment management fees are generally daily fees computed as a
percentage of a Fund's average daily net assets as an annual rate. Please read
the prospectus for each Fund for complete details.
YOUR POLICY
CONTRACT RIGHTS
POLICY OWNER, OR "YOU" -- As long as your policy is in force, you may
exercise all rights under the policy while either of the insureds is alive and
no beneficiary has been irrevocably named.
BENEFICIARY -- You name the beneficiary in your application for the policy.
You may change the beneficiary (unless irrevocably named) while the insured is
alive by notifying us in writing. If no beneficiary is living when the insured
dies, the death benefit will be paid to you if living; or, otherwise, to your
estate.
ASSIGNMENT -- You may assign your policy. Until you notify us in writing, no
assignment will be effective against us. We are not responsible for the validity
of any assignment.
STATEMENTS -- We will send you a statement at least once each year, showing:
(a) the current Account Value, Cash Surrender Value and Face Amount;
(b) the premiums paid, monthly deduction amounts and any loans since your last
statement;
(c) the amount of any Indebtedness;
(d) any notifications required by the provisions of your policy; and
(e) any other information required by the Insurance Department of the state
where your policy was delivered.

HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY 15
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CONTRACT LIMITATIONS
ALLOCATIONS TO SUB-ACCOUNTS AND THE FIXED ACCOUNT -- You may allocate
amounts to a maximum of nine (9) Sub-Accounts, or eight (8) Sub-Accounts and the
Fixed Account.
TRANSFERS OF ACCOUNT VALUE -- You may transfer amounts among the Fixed
Account and the Sub-Accounts subject to a charge described below. You may
request transfers in writing or by calling us at 1-800-231-5453. Transfers by
telephone may be made by your agent of record or by your attorney-in-fact
pursuant to a power of attorney. Telephone transfers may not be permitted in
some states. We will not be responsible for losses that result from acting upon
telephone requests reasonably believed to be genuine. We will employ reasonable
procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine.
The procedures we follow for transactions initiated by telephone include
requiring callers to provide certain identifying information. All transfer
instructions communicated to us by telephone are tape recorded.
You may make one transfer per calendar month free of charge, excluding any
transfers made pursuant to your enrollment in the Dollar Cost Averaging Program.
Each subsequent transfer in excess of one per calendar month will be subject to
a transfer charge of up to $25. We reserve the right to limit at a future date
the size of transfers and remaining balances and to limit the number and
frequency of transfers.
TRANSFERS FROM THE FIXED ACCOUNT -- Except for transfers made under the
Dollar Cost Averaging Program, any transfers from the Fixed Account must occur
during the 30-day period following each policy anniversary, and, if your
accumulated value in the Fixed Account exceeds $1,000, the amount transferred
from the Fixed Account in any policy year may not exceed 25% of the accumulated
value in the Fixed Account on the transfer date.
DEFERRAL OF PAYMENTS -- We may defer payment of any Cash Surrender Values,
withdrawals and loan amounts which are not from the Sub-Accounts for up to six
months from the date of the request. If we defer payment for more than 30 days,
we will pay you interest.
CHANGES TO CONTRACT OR SEPARATE ACCOUNT
MODIFICATION OF POLICY -- The only way the policy may be modified is by a
written agreement signed by our President, or one of our Vice Presidents,
Secretaries, or Assistant Secretaries.
SUBSTITUTION OF FUNDS -- We reserve the right to substitute the shares of
any other registered investment company for the shares of any Fund already
purchased or to be purchased in the future by the Separate Account provided that
the substitution has been approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
CHANGE IN OPERATION OF THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT -- The operation of the Separate
Account may be modified to the extent permitted by law, including deregistration
under the securities laws.
SEPARATE ACCOUNT TAXES -- Currently, no charge is made to the Separate
Account for federal, state and local taxes that may be allocable to the Separate
Account. A change in the applicable federal, state or local tax laws which
impose tax on Hartford and/or the Separate Account may result in a charge
against the policy in the future. Charges for other taxes, if any, allocable to
the Separate Account may also be made.
OTHER BENEFITS
DOLLAR COST AVERAGING PROGRAM -- You may elect to allocate your Net Premiums
among the Sub-Accounts and the Fixed Account pursuant to the Dollar Cost
Averaging (DCA) program. If you choose the DCA program, your Net Premiums will
be deposited into the Hartford Money Market Sub-Account or the Fixed Account.
Amounts will be transferred monthly to the other investment options in
accordance with your premium allocation instructions. The dollar amount will be
allocated to the investment options that you specify, in the proportions that
you specify. If, on any transfer date, your Account Value allocated to the
Dollar Cost Averaging program is less than the amount you have elected to
transfer, your DCA program will terminate.
You may cancel your DCA election by notice in writing or by calling us at
1-800-231-5453. We reserve the right to change or discontinue the DCA program.
The main objective of a DCA program is to minimize the impact of short-term
price fluctuations. The DCA program allows you to take advantage of market
fluctuations. Since the same dollar amount is transferred to your selected
investment options at set intervals, the DCA program allows you to purchase more
accumulation units when prices are low and fewer accumulation units when prices
are high. Therefore, a lower average cost per accumulation unit may be achieved
over the long term. However, it is important to understand that the DCA program
does not assure a profit or protect against loss in a declining market.
SUPPLEMENTAL BENEFITS -- The following supplemental benefits are among the
options that may be included in a policy by rider, subject to the restrictions
and limitations set forth therein. Charges for the riders increase the Monthly
Deduction Amount.
- - DEDUCTION AMOUNT WAIVER RIDER. We will waive Monthly Deduction Amounts if the
insured becomes totally disabled prior to age 65 for at least six months.
<PAGE>
16 HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - ACCIDENTAL DEATH BENEFIT RIDER. We will increase the death proceeds if the
insured dies from an accident.
- - INCREASE IN COVERAGE OPTION RIDER. We will guarantee you the right to purchase
a new flexible premium variable life insurance policy on the life of the
insured, without evidence of insurability, if certain conditions are met.
These conditions include:
(a) the original policy has been in force for five years,
(b) the insured's attained age is less than 80, and
(c) the Account Value of the original policy is sufficient to "pay up" the new
policy under assumptions defined in the rider.
The face amount of the new policy will be equal to the Face Amount,
multiplied by a percentage which depends on the insured's age, gender (except
where unisex rates are used) and insurance class. The scheduled premium fee for
the new policy is based on the scheduled premium for the original policy.
- - MATURITY DATE EXTENSION RIDER. We will extend the maturity date to the date of
death of the insured, regardless of the age of the insured, subject to certain
death benefit and premium restrictions.
SETTLEMENT OPTIONS -- Proceeds under your policy may be paid in a lump sum
or may be applied to one of our four settlement options. The minimum amount that
may be placed under a settlement option is $5,000 (unless we consent to a lesser
amount), subject to our then-current rules. Once payments under the Second
Option, the Third Option or the Fourth Option begin, no surrender may be made
for a lump sum settlement in lieu of the life insurance payments. The following
payment options are available to you or your beneficiary. If a payment option is
not selected, proceeds will be paid in a lump sum. Your beneficiary may choose a
settlement.
FIRST OPTION -- Interest Income
Payments of interest at the rate we declare (but not less than 3 1/2% per
year) on the amount applied under this option.
SECOND OPTION -- Income of Fixed Amount
Equal payments of the amount chosen until the amount applied under this
option (with interest of not less than 3 1/2% per year) is exhausted. The final
payment will be for the balance remaining.
THIRD OPTION -- Payments for a Fixed Period
An amount payable monthly for the number of years selected, which may be
from one to 30 years.
FOURTH OPTION -- Life Income
Life Annuity -- An annuity payable monthly during the lifetime of the
annuitant and terminating with the last monthly payment due preceding the
death of the annuitant.
Life Annuity with 120 Monthly Payments Certain -- An annuity providing monthly
income to the annuitant for a fixed period of 120 months and for as long
thereafter as the annuitant shall live.
The policy provides for guaranteed dollar amounts of monthly payments for
each $1,000 applied under the four payment options. Under the Fourth Option, the
amount of each payment will depend upon the age of the Annuitant at the time the
first payment is due. If any periodic payment due any payee is less than $200,
we may make payments less often.
The table for the Fourth Option is based on the 1983a Individual Annuity
Mortality Table, set back one year and with a net investment rate of 3.5% per
annum. The tables for the First, Second and Third Options are based on a net
investment rate of 3.5% per annum. We may, however, from time to time, at our
discretion if mortality appears more favorable and interest rates justify, apply
other tables which will result in higher monthly payments for each $1,000
applied under one or more of the four payment options.
Other arrangements for income payments may be agreed upon.
SURRENDER/CONTINUATION OPTIONS -- At any time prior to the maturity date,
you may choose to have the Cash Surrender Value applied under one of the
following options:
- - Option A -- Surrender for Cash
- - Option B -- Continue as Extended Term Insurance
- - Option C -- Continue as Paid-Up Insurance
In addition, you may choose one of the above options if, during the
Guarantee Period:
(a) a required scheduled premium is not paid by the end of the grace period; and
(b) the Automatic Premium Loan Option is not elected or not available due to
insufficient Cash Surrender Value.
You may notify us in writing of your choice within 61 days after the due
date for the outstanding scheduled premium. If you do not notify us, we will
automatically apply the Cash Surrender Value to Option B, or, Option C if the
insurance class shown in your policy is "special." If your policy has no Cash
Surrender Value, it will terminate at the end of the grace period.
The effective date of the surrender/continuation options will be the earlier
of the date we receive your election request in writing or the end of the grace
period. When a surrender/continuation option becomes effective, all benefit
riders attached to a policy will terminate, unless otherwise provided in the
rider.
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY 17
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following are descriptions of each option:
OPTION A -- SURRENDER FOR CASH -- If you choose Option A, you must surrender
your policy to us. We will pay you the Cash Surrender Value at the time of
surrender, and our liability under the policy will cease.
OPTION B -- CONTINUATION OF POLICY AS EXTENDED TERM INSURANCE -- Option B is
not available unless the insurance class shown in your policy is "standard" or
"preferred." If you choose Option B, the extended term insurance death benefit
will be the death benefit in effect on the effective date of the non-forfeiture
benefit, less any Indebtedness. The term will begin on the effective date of
Option B and will extend for a period of time equal to that which the Cash
Surrender Value will provide as a net single premium at the insured's then
attained age. At the end of such term, we will pay you any Cash Surrender Value
not used to provide extended term insurance, and our liability under the policy
will cease.
OPTION C -- CONTINUATION OF POLICY AS PAID-UP INSURANCE -- If you choose
Option C, your policy will continue as paid-up life insurance. The amount of
paid-up life insurance will be calculated using the Cash Surrender Value of your
policy as a net single premium as of the effective date of this benefit at the
insured's then-attained age. Hartford reserves the right to require evidence of
insurability or limit the amount of Option C if the paid-up amount exceeds the
death benefit in effect on the effective date of Option C. We will pay you any
Cash Surrender Value not used to provide paid-up insurance.
If your policy is continued under Option B or Option C, as described above,
the Cash Surrender Value available within 30 days after any policy anniversary
will not be less than the Cash Value on such policy anniversary minus any
Indebtedness.
BENEFITS AT MATURITY -- If the insured is living on the "maturity date" (the
anniversary of the policy date on which the insured attained age 100), we will
pay the Cash Surrender Value to you upon surrender of the policy to us. On the
maturity date, the policy will terminate and Hartford will have no further
obligations under the policy.
CLASS OF PURCHASERS
REDUCED CHARGES FOR ELIGIBLE GROUPS -- Certain of the charges and deductions
described above may be reduced for policies issued in connection with a specific
plan, in accordance with our rules in effect as of the date the application for
a policy is approved. To qualify for such a reduction, a plan must satisfy
certain criteria, e.g., as to size of the plan, expected number of participants
and anticipated premium payment from the plan. Generally, the sales contacts and
effort, administrative costs and mortality cost per policy vary, based on such
factors as the size of the plan, the purposes for which policies are purchased
and certain characteristics of the plan's members. The amount of reduction and
the criteria for qualification will be reflected in the reduced sales effort and
administrative costs resulting from, and the different mortality experience
expected as a result of, sales to qualifying plans. We may modify, from time to
time on a uniform basis, both the amounts of reductions and the criteria for
qualification. Reductions in these charges will not be unfairly discriminatory
against any person, including the affected policy owners invested in the
Separate Account.
PREMIUMS
APPLICATION FOR A POLICY -- To purchase a policy you must submit an
application to us. Within limits, you may choose the initial Face Amount,
scheduled premiums, and the Guarantee Period. Policies generally will be issued
only on the lives of insureds age 80 and under who supply evidence of
insurability satisfactory to us. Acceptance is subject to our underwriting rules
and we reserve the right to reject an application for any reason. No change in
the terms or conditions of a policy will be made without your consent. The
minimum initial premium is the amount required to keep the policy in force for
one month, but not less than $50.
Your policy will be effective on the policy date only after we receive all
outstanding delivery requirements and the initial premium payment. The policy
date is the date used to determine all future cyclical transactions on the
policy, such as Monthly Activity Date and policy years.
PREMIUM PAYMENT FLEXIBILITY -- You have the ability to pay amounts greater
or less than your scheduled premiums. Prior to policy issue, you can choose the
level of the scheduled premiums, within a range determined by Hartford, based on
the Face Amount and the insured's gender (except where unisex rates apply),
issue age and risk classification.
During the Guarantee Period, Hartford will guarantee that your policy will
not lapse, regardless of the investment experience of the Funds, provided that
you pay the scheduled premiums when due and Indebtedness never exceeds the Cash
Value. In addition, unscheduled premiums are allowed during the Guarantee
Period. Even if you do not pay all scheduled premiums due during the Guarantee
Period, your policy will stay in force as long as the Policy Surplus exceeds
Indebtedness. After the Guarantee Period, you may change your scheduled premiums
to any level you desire. Unscheduled premiums will continue to be allowed.
Additionally, once the Guarantee Period has expired, your policy will not lapse
as long as the Cash Surrender Value is sufficient to cover the Monthly Deduction
Amounts. For more details, see "Lapse and Reinstatement."
SCHEDULED PREMIUMS -- You have the right to pay scheduled premiums annually,
semiannually, quarterly, or monthly. The first scheduled premium is due on the
policy date. During the Guarantee Period, each scheduled

premium after the initial premium payment is due at the expiration of the period
for which the preceding scheduled premium was paid. A scheduled premium may be
paid at any time prior to its due date, subject to the premium limitations set
forth in the Code.
During the Guarantee Period, your policy will not terminate due to
insufficient Cash Value, regardless of the investment experience of the Funds,
provided all scheduled premiums are paid when due and if Indebtedness does not
exceed the Cash Value.
During the Guarantee Period, if you fail to pay a scheduled premium when
due, and if, on the premium due date and for the rest of that policy year, the
Policy Surplus exceeds Indebtedness, payment of such scheduled premium will not
be required in that year or in any future policy year. Your policy will not
terminate due to such nonpayment. However, future scheduled premiums during the
Guarantee Period will be required unless the Policy Surplus continues to exceed
Indebtedness in future policy years. In addition, as is true with any premium,
your Account Value and Policy Surplus in future years will be greater if you
make the premium payment.
For example, to determine whether or not non-payment of a scheduled premium
in policy year 2 would result in a lapse, you would compare the actual Account
Value on the first policy anniversary to the first Target Account Value. If the
actual Account Value equals or is greater than the Target Account Value and
Indebtedness remained less than the Policy Surplus, failure to pay any scheduled
premiums due in policy year 2 would not result in a lapse.
After the Guarantee Period, Hartford will send you reminder notices to pay
scheduled premiums during the insured's lifetime. Payment of the scheduled
premium may not be sufficient to keep your policy in force after the end of the
Guarantee Period.
UNSCHEDULED PREMIUMS -- Any premium payment we receive in an amount
different from the scheduled premium will be considered an unscheduled premium.
Unscheduled premiums of at least $50 can be made at any time while a policy is
in force.
You may pay additional premiums at any time prior to the scheduled maturity
date, subject to the following limitations:
- - The minimum premium that we will accept is $50 or the amount required to keep
the policy in force.
- - We reserve the right to refund any excess premiums that would cause the policy
to fail to meet the definition of life insurance under the Internal Revenue
Code.
- - We reserve the right to require evidence of insurability for any premium
payment that results in an increase in the death benefit greater than the
amount of the premium.
- - Any premium payment in excess of $1,000,000 is subject to our approval.
ALLOCATION OF PREMIUM PAYMENTS -- The initial Net Premium (and any
additional Net Premiums received by us before the end of the right to examine
period) will be allocated to the Hartford Money Market Sub-Account on the later
of the policy date or the date we receive your premium payment.
We will then allocate the Account Value in the Hartford Money Market
Sub-Account to the Fixed Account and the Sub-Accounts according to the premium
allocation specified in your policy application upon the expiration of the right
to examine policy period, or the date we receive the final requirement to put
the policy in force, whichever is later.
You may change your premium allocation upon request in writing. Allocations
must be in whole percentages. Subsequent Net Premiums will be allocated to the
Fixed Account and the Sub-Accounts according to your most recent written
instructions as long as the number of investment choices does not exceed nine
(9), and the percentage you allocate to each Sub-Account and/or the Fixed
Account is in whole percentages. If we receive a premium payment with a premium
allocation instruction that does not comply with the above rules, we will
allocate the Net Premium pro rata based on the values of your existing
investment choices.
You will receive several different types of notifications as to what your
current premium allocation is. Each transaction confirmation received after we
receive a premium payment will show how a Net Premium has been allocated.
Additionally, each quarterly statement summarizes the current premium allocation
in effect for your policy.
ACCUMULATION UNITS -- Net Premiums allocated to the Sub-Accounts are used to
credit accumulation units to such Sub-Accounts.
The number of accumulation units in each Sub-Account to be credited to a
policy (including the initial allocation to the Hartford Money Market
Sub-Account) and the amount to be credited to the Fixed Account will be
determined, first, by multiplying the Net Premium by the appropriate allocation
percentage in order to determine the portion of Net Premiums or transferred
Account Value to be invested in the Fixed Account or the Sub-Account. Each
portion of the Net Premium or transferred Account Value to be invested in a
Sub-Account is then divided by the accumulation unit value in a particular
Sub-Account next computed following its receipt. The resulting figure is the
number of accumulation units to be credited to each Sub-Account.
ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUES -- The accumulation unit value for each Sub-Account
will vary to reflect the investment experience of the applicable Fund and will
be determined on each Valuation Day by multiplying the
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY 19
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
accumulation unit value of the particular Sub-Account on the preceding Valuation
Day by the net investment factor for that Sub-Account for the Valuation Period
then ended. The net investment factor for each of the Sub-Accounts is equal to
the net asset value per share of the corresponding Fund at the end of the
Valuation Period (plus the per share amount of any dividend or capital gain
distributions paid by that Fund in the Valuation Period then ended) divided by
the net asset value per share of the corresponding Fund at the beginning of the
Valuation Period.
All valuations in connection with a policy, e.g., with respect to
determining Account Value, in connection with policy loans, or in calculation of
death benefits, or with respect to determining the number of accumulation units
to be credited to a policy with each premium payment other than the initial
premium payment will be made on the date the request or payment is received by
us at the National Service Center, provided such date is a Valuation Day;
otherwise such determination will be made on the next succeeding date which is a
Valuation Day.
ACCOUNT VALUES -- Each policy will have an Account Value. There is no
minimum guaranteed Account Value.
The Account Value of a policy changes on a daily basis and will be computed
on each Valuation Day. The Account Value will vary to reflect the investment
experience of the Sub-Accounts, the interest credited to the Fixed Account and
the Loan Account, and the Monthly Deduction Amounts, Net Premiums paid, and any
withdrawals taken.
A policy's Account Value is related to the net asset value of the Funds
associated with the Sub-Accounts, if any, to which Net Premiums on the policy
have been allocated. The Account Value in the Sub-Accounts on any Valuation Day
is calculated by, first, multiplying the number of accumulation units in each
Sub-Account as of the Valuation Day by the then current value of the
accumulation units in that Sub-Account and then totaling the result for all of
the Sub-Accounts. A policy's Account Value equals the policy's value in all of
the Sub-Accounts, the Fixed Account, and the Loan Account. A policy's Cash Value
is equal to the Account Value less any applicable surrender charges. A policy's
Cash Surrender Value, which is the net amount available upon surrender of the
policy, is the Cash Value less any Indebtedness. See "Accumulation Unit Values,"
above.
We will pay death proceeds, Cash Surrender Values, partial withdrawals, and
loan amounts allocable to the Sub-Accounts within seven days after we receive
all the information needed to process the payment, unless the New York Stock
Exchange is closed for other than a regular holiday or weekend, trading is
restricted by the Commission or the Commission declares that an emergency
exists.
DEATH BENEFITS AND
POLICY VALUES
DEATH BENEFIT -- Your policy provides for the payment of the death proceeds
to the named beneficiary upon receipt of due proof of the death of the insured.
Your policy will be effective on the policy date only after we receive all
outstanding delivery requirements and the initial premium payment. You must
notify us in writing as soon as possible after the death of the insured. The
death proceeds payable to the beneficiary equal the death benefit less any
Indebtedness and less any due and unpaid Monthly Deduction Amount occurring
during a grace period. The death benefit depends on the death benefit option you
select.
DEATH BENEFIT OPTIONS -- There are three death benefit options: the Level
Death Benefit Option ("Option A"), the Return of Account Value Death Benefit
Option ("Option B") and the Return of Premium Death Benefit Option ("Option C").
Subject to the minimum death benefit described below, the death benefit under
each option is as follows:
1. Under Option A, the current Face Amount.
2. Under Option B, the current Face Amount plus the Account Value.
3. Under Option C, the current Face Amount plus the sum of the scheduled
premiums paid.
OPTION CHANGE -- After the Guarantee Period, you may change the Return of
Premium Death Benefit Option or Return of Account Value Death Benefit Option to
the Level Death Benefit Option. If you do, the Face Amount will become the
amount available as a death benefit immediately prior to the Death Benefit
Option change.
DEATH BENEFIT GUARANTEE -- During the Guarantee Period, your policy will not
terminate due to insufficient Cash Surrender Value, regardless of the investment
experience of the Funds, provided all scheduled premiums are paid when due and
Indebtedness does not exceed the Cash Value.
The Guarantee Period you select will affect the benefits provided by your
policy. Generally, the longer the Guarantee Period is, the higher front-end
sales loads and surrender charges are. However, the advantages of a longer
Guarantee Period include:
(a) a longer period during which your Death Benefit is guaranteed, regardless of
the investment experience of the Sub-Accounts;
(b) a longer period during which your current administrative fees are
guaranteed. As a result, the longer the Guarantee Period, the lower the
guaranteed administrative fees;
<PAGE>
20 HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(c) a longer period during which your current cost of insurance rates are
guaranteed. As a result, the longer the Guarantee Period, the lower the
guaranteed cost of insurance rates;
(d) lower current cost of insurance rates; and
(e) lower mortality and expense risk rates.
In addition, if you choose a Guarantee Period longer than five years, you
may be given the right to purchase without any evidence of insurability,
additional coverage, subject to limitations.
Because the different charges and fees depend on different factors, such as
the length of the Guarantee Period, it is difficult to anticipate the net effect
of such charges on policy values without a sales illustration. After
consultation with your sales agent, once you decide on a combination of policy
features, (e.g., Face Amount, level of scheduled premiums, Guarantee Period, and
the insured's issue age and gender) the sales agent will provide you with an
illustration which reflects the charges and benefits of that particular
combination, and includes a summary of policy charges and fees. In addition,
such illustrations are available for any permissible combination of benefits
which you may request.
MINIMUM DEATH BENEFIT -- Your policy has a minimum death benefit. We will
automatically increase the death benefit so that it will never be less than the
Account Value multiplied by the minimum death benefit percentage for the then
current year. This percentage varies according to the policy year and each
insured's issue age, sex (where unisex rates are not used) and insurance class.
EXAMPLES OF MINIMUM DEATH BENEFIT:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
A B
---------- ----------
<S> <C> <C>
Face Amount............................ $ 100,000 $ 100,000
Account Value.......................... 46,500 34,000
Specified Percentage................... 250% 250%
Death Benefit Option................... Level Level
</TABLE>
In Example A, the death benefit equals $116,250, i.e., the greater of
$100,000 (the Face Amount) or $116,250 (the Account Value at the date of death
of $46,500, multiplied by the specified percentage of 250%). This amount, less
any outstanding Indebtedness, constitutes the death proceeds payable to the
beneficiary.
In Example B, the death benefit is $100,000, i.e., the greater of $100,000
(the Face Amount) or $85,000 (the Account Value of $34,000, multiplied by the
specified percentage of 250%).
UNSCHEDULED INCREASES AND DECREASES IN FACE AMOUNT -- At any time after the
Guarantee Period, you may request in writing to change the Face Amount. The
minimum amount by which the Face Amount can be increased or decreased is based
on our rules then in effect.
We reserve the right to limit the number of increases or decreases made
under a policy to no more than one in any 12 month period.
All requests to increase the Face Amount must be applied for on a new
application and accompanied by your policy. All requests will be subject to
evidence of insurability satisfactory to us. Any increase approved by us will be
effective on the Monthly Activity Date shown on the new policy specifications
page, provided that the Monthly Deduction Amount for the first month after the
effective date of the increase is made. The monthly administrative fee on the
first Monthly Activity Date on or after the effective date of the increase will
reflect a charge for the increase.
A decrease in the Face Amount will be effective on the Monthly Activity Date
following the date we receive your request in writing. The remaining Face Amount
must not be less than that specified in our minimum rules then in effect.
Decreases in Face Amount will be applied as follows:
(a) to the most recent increase in the Face Amount; then
(b) successively to each prior increase in Face Amount; then
(c) to the initial Face Amount.
If you ask to decrease the Face Amount of your policy below the initial Face
Amount, we will deduct, on a pro rata basis, a portion of any remaining
surrender charge from your Account Value. The amount of the reduction will be
equal to:
(a) the initial Face Amount, minus the requested Face Amount, multiplied by
(b) the surrender charge on the date of the request to change the Face Amount,
divided by
(c) the initial Face Amount.
Your surrender charge will be reduced by the same amount.
CHARGES AND CONTRACT VALUES -- Your contract values decrease due to the
deduction of policy charges. Contract values may increase or decrease depending
on investment performance; investment expenses and fees reduce the investment
performance of the Sub-Accounts. Fluctuations in your account value may have an
effect on your death benefit. If your contract lapses, the contract terminates
and no death benefit will be paid.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MAKING WITHDRAWALS FROM
YOUR POLICY
SURRENDER -- Provided your policy has a Cash Surrender Value, you may
surrender your policy to us. We will pay you the Cash Surrender Value. Our
liability under the policy will cease as of the date of your request for
surrender, or the date you request to have your policy surrendered, if later.
PARTIAL WITHDRAWALS -- After the Guarantee Period, partial withdrawals are
allowed. The minimum partial withdrawal allowed is $500. The maximum partial
withdrawal is the Cash Surrender Value, minus $1,000. One partial withdrawal is
allowed per month (between any successive Monthly Activity Dates). The Face
Amount is reduced by the amount of the partial withdrawal. Unless specified
otherwise, a partial withdrawal will be deducted pro rata from the Fixed Account
and the Sub-Accounts.
We do not currently impose a partial withdrawal charge. However, we reserve
the right to impose in the future a partial withdrawal charge of up to $50.
RIGHT TO EXAMINE A POLICY -- You have a limited right to return your policy
for cancellation. You may deliver or mail the policy to us or to the agent from
whom it was purchased any time during your free look period. Your free look
period ends the later of 10 days after you receive your policy, 10 days after we
deliver to you a Notice of Right to Withdraw, or 45 days after you sign the
application for your policy (or longer in some states). In such event, the
policy will be rescinded and we will pay an amount equal to the greater of the
premiums paid for the policy less any Indebtedness or the sum of: i) the Account
Value less any Indebtedness, on the date the returned policy is received by us
or the agent from whom it was purchased; and, ii) any deductions under the
policy or charges associated with the Separate Account. If your policy is
replacing another policy, your free look period and the amount paid to you upon
the return of your policy vary by state.
RIGHT TO EXCHANGE A POLICY -- During the first 24 months after its issuance,
you may exchange your policy for a non-variable life insurance policy on the
life of the insured offered by us or an affiliate. No evidence of insurability
will be required. The new policy will have an amount at risk which equals or is
less than the amount at risk in effect on the date of exchange. Premiums under
the new policy will be based on the same risk classifications as the policy for
which the new policy was exchanged. An exchange of a policy under such
circumstances should be a tax-free transaction under Section 1035 of the Code.
LOANS
AVAILABILITY OF LOANS -- At any time while the policy is in force, you may
borrow against the policy by assigning it as sole security to us. Any new loan
taken together with any existing Indebtedness may not exceed 90% of the Cash
Value on the date we grant a loan.
Unless you specify otherwise, all loan amounts will be transferred on a pro
rata basis from the Fixed Account and each of the Sub-Accounts to the Loan
Account.
If total Indebtedness equals or exceeds the Cash Value on any Monthly
Activity Date, the policy will then go into default. See "Lapse and
Reinstatement."
INTEREST CHARGED ON INDEBTEDNESS -- Interest will accrue daily on the
Indebtedness at the policy loan rate. Because the interest charged on
Indebtedness may exceed the rate credited to the Loan Account, the Indebtedness
may grow faster than the Loan Account. If this happens, any difference between
the value of the Loan Account and the Indebtedness will be transferred on each
Monthly Activity Date from the Fixed Account and Sub-Accounts to the Loan
Account on a pro rata basis. Policy loan rates are shown in the policy.
CREDITED INTEREST -- Any amounts in the Loan Account will be credited with
interest at an annual rate of 2% (in most states) during the first ten policy
years. Thereafter, the rate will be 3% (in most states). For preferred loans,
the rate is 4% (in most states).
PREFERRED LOAN -- If, at any time after the tenth policy anniversary, the
Cash Value exceeds the total of all premiums paid since issue, a Preferred Loan
will be available. The amount available for a Preferred Loan is the amount by
which the Cash Value exceeds total premiums paid. For policy years 11 and
beyond, the amount of the Loan Account which equals a Preferred Loan will be
credited with interest at a rate of 4% (in most states). The amount of
Indebtedness that qualifies as a Preferred Loan is determined by Hartford on
each Monthly Activity Date.
LOAN REPAYMENTS -- You can repay all or any part of your Indebtedness at any
time. The amount of policy loan repayment will be deducted from the Loan Account
and will be allocated among the Fixed Account and the Sub-Accounts in the same
percentage as premium payments are allocated.
TERMINATION DUE TO EXCESSIVE INDEBTEDNESS -- If total Indebtedness equals or
exceeds Cash Value under your policy, your policy will terminate 61 days after
we have mailed notice to your last known address and to the last known address
of any assignees of record. If sufficient loan repayment is not made by the end
of such 61 day period, your policy will terminate without value.
<PAGE>
22 HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EFFECT OF LOANS ON ACCOUNT VALUE -- A loan, whether or not repaid, will have
a permanent effect on your Account Value. This effect occurs because the
investment results of each Sub-Account will apply only to the amount remaining
in such Sub-Accounts. In addition, the rate of interest credited to the Fixed
Account will usually be different than the rate credited to the Loan Account.
The longer a loan is outstanding, the greater the effect on your Account Value
is likely to be. Such effect could be favorable or unfavorable. If the Fixed
Account and the Sub-Accounts earn more than the annual interest rate for funds
held in the Loan Account, your Account Value will not increase as rapidly as it
would have had no loan been made. If the Fixed Account and the Sub-Accounts earn
less than the Loan Account, then your Account Value will be greater than it
would have been had no loan been made. Additionally, if not repaid, the
aggregate amount of the outstanding Indebtedness will reduce the death proceeds
and the Cash Surrender Value otherwise payable.
LAPSE AND REINSTATEMENT
POLICY SURPLUS -- We use the Policy Surplus to determine whether a policy
will terminate if scheduled premiums are not paid when due. If the Policy
Surplus is greater than zero for a policy year, the scheduled premiums may not
be required. However, if the Policy Surplus for a policy year during the
Guarantee Period is zero, all scheduled premiums due in that year are required
to be paid.
The Policy Surplus is determined as follows:
(a) The Policy Surplus for the first policy year is zero.
(b) The Policy Surplus for each subsequent policy year is (x) minus (y), but
never less than zero where (x) is the Account Value at the end of the
previous policy year; and (y) is the target Account Value, as shown in the
policy, for the previous policy year.
Once determined for a given policy year, the Policy Surplus remains constant
for the entire policy year.
LAPSE AND GRACE PERIOD -- During the Guarantee Period, if the Policy Surplus
for a policy year is less than the Indebtedness or is zero on any given Monthly
Activity Date, all scheduled premiums due in that policy year, on or before that
date the Monthly Activity Date are required to be paid in order to keep the
policy in force. With respect to any required scheduled premium not paid on or
before its due date, we will allow a grace period which ends 61 days after the
applicable Monthly Activity Date. During the grace period, the policy will
continue in force. If any such required scheduled premium is not paid by the end
of the grace period, the policy will terminate except as provided under the
non-forfeiture options set forth in the policy or unless you have elected the
Automatic Premium Loan Option (see "-- Automatic Premium Loan Option," below)
and there is sufficient Cash Value to cover the scheduled premium amounts due.
After the Guarantee Period, a policy may terminate 61 days after a Monthly
Activity Date on which the Cash Surrender Value is less than zero. The 61-day
period is the grace period. If sufficient premium payments are not made by the
end of the grace period, a policy will terminate without value. Hartford will
mail you and any assignee under the policy written notice of the amount of
premium payments required to continue the policy in force at least 61 days
before the end of the grace period. The amount of premiums required to be paid
will be no greater then the amount, as of the date the grace period began,
deducted from Account Value in payment of three Monthly Deduction Amounts. If
such premiums are not paid by the end of the grace period, the policy will
terminate.
REINSTATEMENT -- Prior to the death of the insured, a policy may be
reinstated prior to the maturity date, provided such policy has not been
surrendered for cash, and provided further that:
(a) you make your reinstatement request within five years from the policy
termination date;
(b) you submit satisfactory evidence of insurability;
(c) you pay all overdue required scheduled premiums, if any; and
(d) if the Guarantee Period has expired at the time of policy reinstatement and
if the amount paid in is insufficient to reinstate the policy, sufficient
premiums must be paid to:
(i) cover all Monthly Deduction Amounts that are due and unpaid during the
grace period; and
(ii) keep the policy in force for three months after the date of
reinstatement.
The Face Amount of the reinstated policy cannot exceed the Face Amount at
the time of lapse. The Account Value on the policy reinstatement date will
reflect:
(1) the Account Value at the time of termination; plus
(2) Net Premiums attributable to premiums paid at the time of reinstatement;
minus
(3) a charge to reflect the benefits, if any, provided under the extended term
or reduced paid-up options.
The surrender charges for the reinstated policy will be the same as they
would have been on the original policy had no lapse and subsequent reinstatement
of such policy taken place. Any Indebtedness at the time of termination must be
repaid upon reinstatement of the policy or carried over to the reinstated
policy.
AUTOMATIC PREMIUM LOAN OPTION -- If you elect the Automatic Premium Loan
Option, we will automatically
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY 23
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
process a policy loan to pay any scheduled premium which is due and not paid by
the end of its grace period following the due date. You may elect such option in
your policy application or by request in writing, provided no scheduled premium
is outstanding beyond its due date. In most states, automatic premium loans will
be treated as Preferred Loans. See "Loans -- Preferred Loan."
The Automatic Premium Loan Option will not be available if:
(a) you have revoked the election of such option in writing; or
(b) the loan amount needed to pay any unpaid scheduled premium would exceed the
Cash Surrender Value on the most recent scheduled premium due date.
In either instance, the surrender/continuation options will apply as of the
end of the grace period.
In most states, if you have outstanding Indebtedness pursuant to the
Automatic Premium Loan Option, we will allow you to restore the death benefit at
the end of the Guarantee Period to the amount that it would have equaled had no
Indebtedness been incurred pursuant to such option. In such case, we will not
require you to provide evidence of insurability. To remove any such outstanding
Indebtedness, we will reduce your Account Value, and the amount of Indebtedness
outstanding at the end of the Guarantee Period by the sum of the policy loan
incurred pursuant to the Automatic Premium Loan Option, plus all interest
accrued thereon. There will be no reduction in the Face Amount of your policy as
a result of this adjustment.
If you have outstanding Indebtedness pursuant to the Automatic Premium Loan
Option at the end of the Guarantee Period and you have not previously elected to
restore the death benefit at the end of a Guarantee Period as described above,
we will assume that you have elected to restore the death benefit at the end of
the Guarantee Period then in effect. We will notify you that we will make such
adjustment unless you instruct us not to make this adjustment. Such notification
will be made at least 30 days prior to the policy anniversary occurring at the
end of such Guarantee Period
TAXES
GENERAL
Since Federal tax law is complex, the tax consequences of purchasing this
policy will vary depending on your situation. You may need tax or legal advice
to help you determine whether purchasing this policy is right for you.
Our general discussion of the tax treatment of this policy is based on our
understanding of federal income tax laws as they are currently interpreted. A
detailed description of all federal income tax consequences regarding the
purchase of this policy cannot be made in the prospectus. We also do not discuss
state, municipal or other tax laws that may apply to this policy. For detailed
information, you should consult with a qualified tax adviser familiar with your
situation.
TAXATION OF HARTFORD AND
THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
The Separate Account is taxed as a part of Hartford which is taxed as a life
insurance company under Subchapter L of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Code"). Accordingly, the Separate Account will not be taxed as a
"regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the Code. Investment income
and realized capital gains on the assets of the Separate Account (the underlying
Funds) are reinvested and are taken into account in determining the value of the
Accumulation Units As a result, such investment income and realized capital
gains are automatically applied to increase reserves under the policy. (See
"Premiums -- Accumulation Unit Values").
Hartford does not expect to incur any federal income tax on the earnings or
realized capital gains attributable to the Separate Account. Based upon this
expectation, no charge is currently being made to the Separate Account for
federal income taxes. If Hartford incurs income taxes attributable to the
Separate Account or determines that such taxes will be incurred, it may assess a
charge for such taxes against the Separate Account.
INCOME TAXATION OF POLICY BENEFITS
For federal income tax purposes, the Policies should be treated as life
insurance contracts under Section 7702 of the Code. The death benefit under a
life insurance contract is generally excluded from the gross income of the
beneficiary. Also, a life insurance policy owner is generally not taxed on
increments in the contract value until the policy is partially or completely
surrendered. Section 7702 limits the amount of premiums that may be invested in
a policy that is treated as life insurance. Hartford intends to monitor premium
levels to assure compliance with the Section 7702 requirements.
Hartford also believes that any loan received under a policy will be treated
as Indebtedness of the policy owner, and that no part of any loan under a policy
will constitute income to the policy owner. A surrender or assignment of the
policy may have tax consequences depending upon the circumstances. Policy owners
should consult a qualified tax adviser concerning the effect of such changes.
<PAGE>
24 HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
During the first fifteen policy years, an "income first" rule generally
applies to distributions of cash required to be made under Code Section 7702
because of a reduction in benefits under the policy.
The Maturity Date Extension Rider allows a policy owner to extend the
Maturity Date to the date of the death of the insured. If the Maturity Date of
the policy is extended by rider, Hartford believes that the policy will continue
to be treated as a life insurance contract for federal income tax purposes after
the scheduled Maturity Date. However, due to the lack of specific guidance on
this issue, the result is not certain. If the policy is not treated as a life
insurance contract for federal income tax purposes after the scheduled Maturity
Date, among other things, the Death Proceeds may be taxable to the recipient.
The policy owner should consult a qualified tax adviser regarding the possible
adverse tax consequences resulting from an extension of the scheduled Maturity
Date.
MODIFIED ENDOWMENT CONTRACTS
Code Section 7702A applies an additional test, the "seven-pay" test, to life
insurance contracts. The seven-pay test provides that premiums cannot be paid at
a rate more rapidly than that allowed by the payment of seven annual premiums
using specified computational rules described in Section 7702A(c). A modified
endowment contract ("MEC") is a life insurance policy that either: (i) satisfies
the Section 7702 definition of life insurance, but fails the seven-pay test of
Section 7702A or (ii) is exchanged for a MEC.
If the policy satisfies the seven-pay test at issuance, distributions and
loans made thereafter will not be subject to the MEC rules, unless the policy is
changed materially. The seven-pay test will be applied anew at any time the
policy undergoes a material change, which includes an increase in the Face
Amount. In addition, if there is a reduction in benefits under the policy within
the first seven years, the seven-pay test is applied as if the policy had
initially been issued at the reduced benefit level. Any reduction in benefits
attributable to the nonpayment of premiums will not be taken into account for
purposes of the seven-pay test if the benefits are reinstated within 90 days
after the reduction.
A policy that is classified as a MEC is eligible for certain aspects of the
beneficial tax treatment accorded to life insurance. That is, the death benefit
is excluded from income and increments in value are not subject to current
taxation. However, if the contract is classified as a MEC then withdrawals from
the contract will be considered first as withdrawals of income and then as a
recovery of premium payments. Thus, withdrawals will be includible in income to
the extent the contract value exceeds the investment in the contract. The amount
of any loan (including unpaid interest thereon) under the contract will be
treated as a withdrawal from the contract for tax purposes. In addition, if the
owner assigns or pledges any portion of the value of a contract (or agrees to
assign or pledge any portion), then such portion will be treated as a withdrawal
from the contract for tax purposes. Taxable withdrawals are subject to an
additional 10% tax, with certain exceptions. The owner's investment in the
contract is increased by the amount includible in income with respect to such
assignment, pledge, or loan, though it is not affected by any other aspect of
the assignment, pledge, or loan (including its release or repayment).
Generally, only distributions and loans made in the first year in which a
policy becomes a MEC, and in subsequent years, are taxable. However,
distributions and loans made in the two years prior to a policy's failing the
seven-pay test are deemed to be in anticipation of failure and are subject to
tax.
Before assigning, pledging, or requesting a loan under a policy that is a
MEC, an owner should consult a qualified tax adviser.
All MEC policies that are issued within any calendar year to the same policy
owner by one company or its affiliates are treated as one MEC policy for the
purpose of determining the taxable portion of any loan or distribution.
Hartford has instituted procedures to monitor whether a policy may become

When the Insured dies, the death proceeds will generally be includible in
the policy owner's estate for purposes of federal estate tax if the Insured
owned the policy. If the policy owner was not the Insured, the fair market value
of the policy would be included in the policy owner's estate upon the policy
owner's death. The policy would not be includible in the Insured's estate if the
Insured neither retained incidents of ownership at death nor had given up
ownership within three years before death.
The federal estate tax is integrated with the federal gift tax under a
unified rate schedule and unified credit which shelters up to $650,000 (for
1999) from the estate and gift tax. The Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 gradually
raises the credit over the next seven years to $1,000,000. In addition, an
unlimited marital deduction may be available for federal estate and gift tax
purposes. The unlimited marital deduction permits the deferral of taxes until
the death of the surviving spouse.
If the policy owner (whether or not he or she is the Insured) transfers
ownership of the policy to someone two or more generations younger, the transfer
may be subject to the generation skipping transfer tax, the taxable amount being
the value of the policy. The generation-skipping transfer tax provisions
generally apply to transfers which would be subject to the gift and estate tax
rules. Individuals

are generally allowed an aggregate generation skipping transfer exemption of $1
million as adjusted for inflation. Because these rules are complex, the policy
owner should consult with a qualified tax adviser for specific information if
ownership is passing to younger generations.
DIVERSIFICATION REQUIREMENTS
The Code requires that investments supporting your policy be adequately
diversified. Code Section 817 provides that a variable life insurance contract
will not be treated as a life insurance contract for any period during which the
investments made by the separate account or underlying fund are not adequately
diversified. If a contract is not treated as a life insurance contract, the
policy owner will be subject to income tax on annual increases in cash value.
The Treasury Department's diversification regulations require, among other
things, that:
- - no more than 55% of the value of the total assets of the segregated asset
account underlying a variable contract is represented by any one investment,
- - no more than 70% is represented by any two investments,
- - no more than 80% is represented by any three investments and
- - no more than 90% is represented by any four investments.
In determining whether the diversification standards are met, all securities
of the same issuer, all interests in the same real property project, and all
interests in the same commodity are each treated as a single investment. In the
case of government securities, each government agency or instrumentality is
treated as a separate issuer.
A separate account must be in compliance with the diversification standards
on the last day of each calendar quarter or within 30 days after the quarter
ends. If an insurance company inadvertently fails to meet the diversification
requirements, the company may still comply within a reasonable period and avoid
the taxation of contract income on an ongoing basis. However, either the company
or the policy owner must agree to pay the tax due for the period during which
the diversification requirements were not met.
We monitor the diversification of investments in the separate accounts and
test for diversification as required by the Code. We intend to administer all
policies subject to the diversification requirements in a manner that will
maintain adequate diversification.
OWNERSHIP OF THE ASSETS IN
THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
In order for a variable life insurance contract to qualify for tax deferral,
assets in the separate accounts supporting the contract must be considered to be
owned by the insurance company and not by the policy owner. It is unclear under
what circumstances an investor is considered to have enough control over the
assets in the separate account to be considered the owner of the assets for tax
purposes.
The IRS has issued several rulings discussing investor control. These
rulings say that certain incidents of ownership by the policy owner, such as the
ability to select and control investments in a separate account, will cause the
policy owner to be treated as the owner of the assets for tax purposes.
In its explanation of the diversification regulations, the Treasury
Department recognized that the temporary regulations "do not provide guidance
concerning the circumstances in which investor control of the investments of a
segregated asset account may cause the investor, rather than the insurance
company, to be treated as the owner of the assets in the account." The
explanation further indicates that "the temporary regulations provide that in
appropriate cases a segregated asset account may include multiple sub-accounts,
but do not specify the extent to which policyholders may direct their
investments to particular sub-accounts without being treated as the owners of
the underlying assets. Guidance on this and other issues will be provided in
regulations or revenue rulings under Section 817(d), relating to the definition
of variable contract."
The final regulations issued under Section 817 did not provide guidance
regarding investor control, and as of the date of this prospectus, guidance has
yet to be issued. We do not know if additional guidance will be issued. If
guidance is issued, we do not know if it will have a retroactive effect.
Due to the lack of specific guidance on investor control, there is some
uncertainty about when a policy owner is considered the owner of the assets for
tax purposes. We reserve the right to modify the policy, as necessary, to
prevent you from being considered the owner of assets in the separate account.
TAX DEFERRAL DURING ACCUMULATION PERIOD
Under existing provisions of the Code, except as described below, any
increase in an owner's Investment Value is generally not taxable to the policy
owner unless amounts are received (or are deemed to be received) under the
policy prior to the insured's death. If the policy is surrendered or matures,
the amount received will be includable in the policy owner's income to the
extent that it exceeds the
<PAGE>
26 HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
policy owner's "investment in the contract." (If there is any debt at the time
of a surrender, then such debt will be treated as an amount distributed to the
owner.) The "investment in the contract" is the aggregate amount of premium
payments and other consideration paid for the policy, less the aggregate amount
received previously under the policy to the extent such amounts received were
excluded from gross income. Whether partial withdrawals (or other such amounts
deemed to be distributed) from the policy constitute income to the policy owner
depends, in part, upon whether the policy is considered a modified endowment
contract for Federal income tax purposes.
LIFE INSURANCE PURCHASED FOR USE
IN SPLIT DOLLAR ARRANGEMENTS
On January 26, 1996, the IRS released a technical advice memorandum ("TAM")
on the taxability of life insurance policies used in certain split dollar
arrangements. A TAM, issued by the National Office of the IRS, provides advice
as to the internal revenue laws, regulations, and related statutes with respect
to a specific set of facts and a specific taxpayer. In the TAM, among other
things, the IRS concluded that an employee was subject to current taxation on
the excess of the cash surrender value of the policy over the premiums to be
returned to the employer. Purchasers of life insurance policies to be used in
split dollar arrangements are strongly advised to consult with a qualified tax
adviser to determine the tax treatment resulting from such an arrangement.
FEDERAL INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING
If any amounts are deemed to be current taxable income to the policy owner,
such amounts will be subject to federal income tax withholding and reporting,
pursuant to the Code.
NON-INDIVIDUAL OWNERSHIP OF POLICIES
In certain circumstances, the Code limits the application of specific tax
advantages to individual owners of life insurance contracts. Prospective policy
owners which are not individuals should consult a qualified tax adviser to
determine the potential impact on the purchaser.
OTHER
Federal estate tax, state and local estate, inheritance and other tax
consequences of ownership, or receipt of policy proceeds depend on the
circumstances of each policy owner or beneficiary. A qualified tax adviser
should be consulted to determine the impact of these taxes.
LIFE INSURANCE PURCHASES BY NONRESIDENT
ALIENS AND FOREIGN CORPORATIONS
The discussion above provides general information regarding U.S. federal
income tax consequences to life insurance purchasers that are U.S. citizens or
residents. Purchasers that are not U.S. citizens or residents will generally be
subject to U.S. federal income tax and withholding on taxable distributions from
life insurance policies at a 30% rate, unless a lower treaty rate applies. In
addition, purchasers may be subject to state and/or municipal taxes and taxes
that may be imposed by the purchaser's country of citizenship or residence.
Prospective purchasers are advised to consult with a qualified tax adviser
regarding U.S. state, and foreign taxation with respect to a life insurance
policy purchase.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There are no pending material legal proceedings to which the Separate
Account is a party.
OTHER MATTERS
YEAR 2000
IN GENERAL -- The Year 2000 issue relates to the ability or inability of
computer hardware, software and other information technology (IT) systems, as
well as non-IT systems, such as equipment and machinery with imbedded chips and
microprocessors, to properly process information and data containing or related
to dates beginning with the year 2000 and beyond. The Year 2000 issue exists
because, historically, many IT and non-IT systems that are in use today were
developed years ago when a year was identified using a two-digit date field
rather than a four-digit date field. As information and data containing or
related to the century date are introduced to date sensitive systems, these
systems may recognize the year 2000 as "1900", or not at all, which may result
in systems processing information incorrectly. This, in turn, may significantly
and adversely affect the integrity and reliability of information databases of
IT systems, may cause the malfunctioning of certain non-IT systems, and may
result in a wide variety of adverse consequences to a company. In addition, Year
2000 problems that occur with third parties with which a company does business,
such as suppliers, computer vendors, distributors and others, may also adversely
affect any given company.
The integrity and reliability of Hartford's IT systems, as well as the
reliability of its non-IT systems, are integral aspects of Hartford's business.
Hartford issues insurance policies, annuities, mutual funds and other financial
products to individual and business customers, nearly all of which contain date
sensitive data, such as policy expiration
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY 27
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
dates, birth dates and premium payment dates. In addition, various IT systems
support communications and other systems that integrate Hartford's various
business segments and field offices. Hartford also has business relationships
with numerous third parties that affect virtually all aspects of Hartford's
business, including, without limitation, suppliers, computer hardware and
software vendors, insurance agents and brokers, securities broker-dealers and
other distributors of financial products, many of which provide date sensitive
data to Hartford, and whose operations are important to Hartford's business.
INTERNAL YEAR 2000 EFFORTS AND TIMETABLE -- Beginning in 1990, Hartford
began working on making its IT systems Year 2000 ready, either through
installing new programs or replacing systems. Since January 1998, Hartford's
Year 2000 efforts have focused on the remaining Year 2000 issues related to IT
and non-IT systems in all of Hartford's business segments. These Year 2000
efforts include the following five main initiatives: (1) identifying and
assessing Year 2000 issues; (2) taking actions to remediate IT and non-IT
systems so that they are Year 2000 ready; (3) testing IT and non-IT systems for
Year 2000 readiness; (4) deploying such remediated and tested systems back into
their respective production environments; and (5) conducting internal and
external integrated testing of such systems. As of December 31, 1998, Hartford
substantially completed initiatives (1) through (4) of its internal Year 2000
efforts. Hartford has begun initiative (5) and management currently anticipates
that such activity will continue into the fourth quarter of 1999.
THIRD PARTY YEAR 2000 EFFORTS AND TIMETABLE -- Hartford's Year 2000 efforts
include assessing the potential impact on Hartford of third parties' Year 2000
readiness. Hartford's third party Year 2000 efforts include the following three
main initiatives: (1) identifying third parties which have significant business
relationships with Hartford, including, without limitation, insurance agents,
brokers, third party administrators, banks and other distributors and servicers
of financial products, and inquiring of such third parties regarding their Year
2000 readiness; (2) evaluating such third parties' responses to Hartford's
inquiries; and (3) based on the evaluation of third party responses (or a third
party's failure to respond) and the significance of the business relationship,
conducting additional activities with respect to third parties as determined to
be necessary in each case. These activities may include conducting additional
inquiries, more in-depth evaluations of Year 2000 readiness and plans, and
integrated IT systems testing. Hartford has completed the first third party
initiative and, as of early 1999, had substantially completed evaluating third
party responses received. Hartford has begun conducting the additional
activities described in initiative (3) and management currently anticipates that
it will continue to do so through the end of 1999. However, notwithstanding
these third party Year 2000 efforts, Hartford does not have control over these
third parties and, as a result, Hartford cannot currently determine to what
extent future operating results may be adversely affected by the failure of
these third parties to adequately address their Year 2000 issues.
YEAR 2000 COSTS -- The costs of Hartford's Year 2000 program that were
incurred through the year ended December 31, 1997 were not material to
Hartford's financial condition or results of operations. The after-tax costs of
Hartford's Year 2000 efforts for the year ended December 31, 1998 were
approximately $3 million. Management currently estimates that after-tax costs
related to the Year 2000 program to be incurred in 1999 will be less than $10
million. These costs are being expensed as incurred.
RISKS AND CONTINGENCY PLANS -- If significant Year 2000 problems arise,
including problems arising with third parties, failures of IT and non-IT systems
could occur, which in turn could result in substantial interruptions in
Hartford's business. In addition, Hartford's investing activities are an
important aspect of its business and Hartford may be exposed to the risk that
issuers of investments held by it will be adversely impacted by Year 2000
issues. Given the uncertain nature of Year 2000 problems that may arise,
especially those related to the readiness of third parties discussed above,
management cannot determine at this time whether the consequences of Year 2000
related problems that could arise will have a material impact on Hartford's
financial condition or results of operations.
Hartford is in the process of developing certain contingency plans so that
if, despite its Year 2000 efforts, Year 2000 problems ultimately arise, the
impact of such problems may be avoided or minimized. These contingency plans are
being developed based on, among other things, known or reasonably anticipated
circumstances and potential vulnerabilities. The contingency planning also
includes assessing the dependency of Hartford's business on third parties and
their Year 2000 readiness. Hartford currently anticipates that internal and
external contingency plans will be substantially complete by the end of the
second quarter of 1999. However, in many contexts, Year 2000 issues are dynamic,
and ongoing assessments of business functions, vulnerabilities and risks must be
made. As such, new contingency plans may be needed in the future and/or existing
plans may need to be modified as circumstances warrant.

1934 as a broker-dealer and is a member of the National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD").
The policies will be sold by salespersons who represent Hartford as
insurance agents and who are registered representatives of HESCO or certain
other registered broker-dealers who have entered into distribution agreements
with HESCO.
During the first Policy Year, the maximum sales commission payable to
Hartford agents, independent registered insurance brokers, and other registered
broker-dealers will be 45% of the premiums paid up to a target premium and 5% of
any excess. In Policy Years 2 through 10, sales commissions will not exceed 5.5%
of premiums paid. For Policy Years 11 and later, sales commissions will not
exceed 2% of the premiums paid. In addition, expense allowances may be paid. A
sales representative may be required to return all or a portion of the
commissions paid if a Policy sold by such sales representative terminates prior
to such Policy's second Policy anniversary.
Broker-dealers or financial institutions are compensated according to a
schedule set forth by HESCO and any applicable rules or regulations for variable
insurance compensation. Compensation is generally based on premium payments.
This compensation is usually paid from the sales charges described in the
Prospectus.
In addition, a broker-dealer or financial institution may also receive
additional compensation for, among other things, training, marketing or other
services provided. HESCO, its affiliates or Hartford may also make compensation
arrangements with certain broker-dealers or other financial institutions based
on total sales by the broker-dealer or financial institution of insurance
products. These payments, which may be different for broker-dealers or financial
institutions, will be made by HESCO, its affiliates or Hartford out of their
assets and will not affect the amounts paid by the policy owner to purchase,
hold or surrender variable insurance products.
The following table shows officers and directors of HESCO:

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
ABOUT CHARGES
SALES LOAD -- The front-end load portion of a deduction from premiums is
based on the level of Scheduled premiums, the length of the Guarantee Period,
and the amount of any Unscheduled Premiums Paid.
The maximum front-end sales load percentages for the policies are 50% of the
premiums paid in the first Policy Year, 11% in Policy Years 2 through 10, and 3%
thereafter.
For all Guaranteed Periods, the maximum amount of premiums paid in any
Policy Year that is subject to a front-end sales load is the Guideline Annual
Premium. In addition, if Scheduled Premiums are less than the Guideline Annual
Premium, the maximum amount of amount of premiums paid in the first Policy Year
subject to a front-end sales load is the Scheduled Premium.
The actual schedule of front-end sales loads for any given policy is
specified in that policy.
Generally, the shorter the Guarantee Period, the lower the front-end sales
load. The levels range from those for the ten-year Guarantee Period described
above to 0% on a policy with a One Year Guarantee Period. However, there are
other charges under the policies that are lower for longer Guarantee Periods.
The front-end load under the policies may be used to cover expenses related
to the sale and distribution of the policies.
REDUCED CHARGES FOR ELIGIBLE GROUPS -- Certain of the charges and deductions
described above may be reduced for policies issued in connection with a specific
plan, in accordance with our rules in effect as of the date the application for
a policy is approved. To qualify for such a reduction, a plan must satisfy
certain criteria, e.g., as to size of the plan, expected number of participants
and anticipated premium payment from the plan. Generally, the sales contacts and
effort, administrative costs and mortality cost per policy vary, based on such
factors as the size of the plan, the purposes for which policies are purchased
and certain characteristics of the plan's members. The amount of reduction and
the criteria for qualification will be reflected in the reduced sales effort and
administrative costs resulting from, and the different mortality experience
expected as a result of, sales to qualifying plans. We may modify, from time to
time on a uniform basis, both the amounts of reductions and the criteria for
qualification. Reductions in these charges will not be unfairly discriminatory
against any person, including the affected policy owners invested in Separate
Account VL I.
UNDERWRITING PROCEDURES -- To purchase a policy you must submit an
application to us. Within limits, you may
<PAGE>
STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION 7
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
choose the Scheduled Premiums and the initial Face Amount and the Guarantee
Period in the policy application. Policies generally will be issued only on the
lives of insureds age 80 and under who supply evidence of insurability
satisfactory to us. Acceptance is subject to our underwriting rules and we
reserve the right to reject an application for any reason. No change in the
terms or conditions of a policy will be made without your consent.
The cost of insurance charge is to cover our anticipated mortality costs.
For standard risks, the cost of insurance rate will not exceed those based on
the 1980 Commissioners Standard Ordinary Mortality Table. A table of guaranteed
cost of insurance rates per $1,000 will be included in each policy; however we
reserve the right to use rates less than shown in such table. Substandard risks
will be charged a higher cost of insurance rate that will not exceed rates based
on a multiple of the 1980 Commissioners Standard Ordinary Mortality Table. The
multiple will be on the Insured's risk class. We will determine the cost of
insurance rate at the start of each Policy Year. Any changes in the cost of
insurance rate will be made uniformly for all Insureds in the same risk class.
INCREASES IN FACE AMOUNT -- At any time after the Guarantee Period, you may
request in writing to change the Face Amount. The minimum amount by which the
Face Amount can be increased is based on our rules then in effect.
All requests to increase the Face Amount must be applied for on a new
application and shall be accompanied by Your existing policy. All such requests
will be subject to evidence of insurability satisfactory to us. Any increase
approved by us will be effective on the date shown on the new policy
specifications page provided that the cost of insurance deduction for the month
is made. The monthly administrative fee on the first Monthly Activity Date on or
after the effective date of the increase will reflect a charge for the increase.

ILLUSTRATIONS OF DEATH BENEFITS, ACCOUNT VALUES
AND CASH SURRENDER VALUES
The following tables illustrate how the Death Benefits, Account Values and
Cash Surrender Values of a Policy may change with the investment experience of
the Separate Account. They show how the Death Benefit, Account Value and Cash
Surrender Value of a Policy issued to an Insured of a given age would vary over
time if the investment return on the assets held in each Fund was a uniform,
gross annual rate of 0%, 6% and 12%. The Death Benefit, Account Value and Cash
Surrender Value would be different from those shown if the gross annual
investment returns averaged 0%, 6% and 12% over a period of years, but
fluctuated above and below those averages for individual Policy Years. They
assume that no Policy loans or partial withdrawals have been made. The
illustrations are also based on the assumption that the Policy Owner has not
requested an increase or a decrease in the Face Amount and that no transfers
among the Funds have been made in any Policy Year.
The tables illustrate a Policy issued to a Male Insured, Age 45 in the
Preferred Premium Class with an Initial Face Amount of $250,000 and a Scheduled
Premium that is paid at the beginning of each Policy Year. The Death Benefits,
Account Values and Cash Surrender Values would be lower if the Insured was a
smoker or in a special class since the cost of insurance charges would increase.
The tables reflect the fact that the net return on the assets held in the
Sub-Accounts is lower than the gross after-tax return of the Funds. This is
because the illustrations assume an investment management fee and other
estimated Fund expenses totaling 0.71%. The 0.71% figure is based on an average
of the current management fees and expenses of the 36 available Funds, taking
into account any applicable expense caps or reimbursement arrangements. Actual
fees and expenses of the Funds associated with a Policy may be more or less than
0.70%, will vary from year to year, and will depend on how the Account Value is
allocated.
As the headings indicate, the illustrations reflect the deductions of
current contractual charges and guaranteed contractual charges for a single
gross interest rate. Those charges include the monthly mortality and expense
risk charge, the monthly administrative charge, and the monthly mortality
charge. All illustrations assume a charge of 2.00% for taxes attributable to
premiums and reflect the fact that no charges against the Separate Account are
currently made for federal, state or local taxes attributable to the Policies.
Each illustration also shows the amount to which premiums would accumulate
if an amount equal to such premiums was invested to earn interest, after taxes,
at a rate of 5%, compounded annually.
Upon request, Hartford will furnish a comparable illustration based on a
proposed Policy's specific circumstances.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To Hartford Life Insurance Company
Separate Account Variable Life One and to the
Owners of Units of Interest therein:
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of
Hartford Life Insurance Company Separate Account Variable Life One (Bond Fund,
Stock Fund, Money Market Fund, Advisers Fund, Capital Appreciation Fund,
Mortgage Securities Fund, Index Fund, International Opportunities Fund, Dividend
and Growth Fund, Fidelity VIP Equity-Income Portfolio, Fidelity VIP Overseas
Portfolio, Fidelity VIP II Asset Manager Portfolio, Growth and Income Fund,
International Advisers Fund, Small Company Fund, and MidCap Fund) (collectively,
the Account) as of December 31, 1998, and the related statements of operations
and the statements of changes in net assets for the periods presented. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Account'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

SEPARATE ACCOUNT VARIABLE LIFE ONE
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1998
1. ORGANIZATION:
Separate Account Variable Life One (the Account) is a separate investment
account within Hartford Life Insurance Company (the Company) and is registered
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as a unit investment trust
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Both the Company and the
Account are subject to supervision and regulation by the Department of Insurance
of the State of Connecticut and the SEC. The Account invests deposits by
variable life contractholders of the Company in various mutual funds (the
Funds), as directed by the contractholders.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the
Account, which are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
in the investment company industry:
a) SECURITY TRANSACTIONS -- Security transactions are recorded on the trade
date (date the order to buy or sell is executed). Cost of investments sold is
determined on the basis of identified cost. Dividend and capital gains income is
accrued as of the ex-dividend date. Capital gains income represents those
dividends from the Funds which are characterized as capital gains under tax
regulations.
b) SECURITY VALUATION -- The investments in shares of the Funds are valued
at the closing net asset value per share as determined by the appropriate Fund
as of December 31, 1998.
c) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- The operations of the Account form a part of, and
are taxed with, the total operations of the Company, which is taxed as an
insurance company under the Internal Revenue Code. Under current law, no federal
income taxes are payable with respect to the operations of the Account.
d) USE OF ESTIMATES -- The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts
of income and expenses during the period. Operating results in the future could
vary from the amounts derived from management's estimates.
3. ADMINISTRATION OF THE ACCOUNT AND
RELATED CHARGES:
a) DEDUCTIONS AND CHARGES FROM THE ACCOUNT VALUE -- On the policy date and
on each subsequent monthly activity date, the Company will deduct from the
Account an amount to cover mortality and expense risk charges, cost of
insurance, administrative charges and any other benefits provided by the rider.
These charges, which may vary from month to month in accordance with the terms
of the contracts, are deducted through termination of units of interest from
applicable contract owners' accounts.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To Hartford Life Insurance Company Putnam Capital Manager Trust
Separate Account Variable Life One and to the Owners of Units of Interest
therein:
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of
Hartford Life Insurance Company Putnam Capital Manager Trust Separate Account
Variable Life One (Asia Pacific Growth, Diversified Income, The George Putnam
Fund of Boston, Global Asset Allocation, Global Growth, Growth and Income,
Health Sciences, High Yield, International Growth, International Growth and
Income, International New Opportunities, Investors, Money Market, New
Opportunities, New Value, OTC & Emerging Growth, U.S. Government and High
Quality Bond, Utilities Growth and Income, Vista, and Voyager), (collectively,
the Account) as of December 31, 1998, and the related statements of operations
and the statements of changes in net assets for the periods presented. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Account's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of the Account as of December 31,
1998, and the results of their operations and the changes in their net assets
for the periods presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

PUTNAM CAPITAL MANAGER TRUST SEPARATE ACCOUNT VARIABLE LIFE ONE
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1998
1. ORGANIZATION:
Separate Account Variable Life One (the Account) is a separate investment
account within Hartford Life Insurance Company (the Company) and is registered
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as a unit investment trust
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Both the Company and the
Account are subject to supervision and regulation by the Department of Insurance
of the State of Connecticut and the SEC. The Account invests deposits by
variable life contractholders of the Company in the various mutual funds (the
Funds) as directed by the contractholders.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the
Account, which are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
in the investment company industry:
a) SECURITY TRANSACTIONS -- Security transactions are recorded on the trade
date (date the order to buy or sell is executed). Cost of investments sold is
determined on the basis of identified cost. Dividend and capital gains income is
accrued as of the ex-dividend date. Capital gains income represents dividends
from the Funds which are characterized as capital gains under tax regulations.
b) SECURITY VALUATION -- The investments in shares of the Funds are valued
at the closing net asset value per share as determined by the appropriate Fund
as of December 31, 1998.
c) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- The operations of the Account form a part of, and
are taxed with, the total operations of the Company, which is taxed as an
insurance company under the Internal Revenue Code. Under current law, no federal
income taxes are payable with respect to the operations of the Account.
d) USE OF ESTIMATES -- The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts
of income and expenses during the period. Operating results in the future could
vary from the amounts derived from management's estimates.
3. ADMINISTRATION OF THE ACCOUNT AND
RELATED CHARGES:
a) COST OF INSURANCE -- In accordance with terms of the contracts, the
Company makes deductions for costs of insurance to cover the Company's
anticipated mortality costs. Because a policy's account value and death benefit
may vary from month to month, the cost of insurance charges may also vary.
b) MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE -- The Company, as issuer of variable
annuity contracts, provides the mortality and expense undertakings and, with
respect to the Account, receives a maximum annual fee of 1.40% of the Account's
average daily net assets. These expenses are reflected in surrenders on the
accompanying statements of changes in net assets.
c) ADMINISTRATIVE AND ISSUE CHARGES -- The Company assesses a monthly
administrative charge to compensate the Company for administrative costs in
connection with the policies. This charge covers the average expected cost for
these expenses at a maximum of $12 per month. Additionally, the Company assesses
a monthly charge in the first policy year for up-front costs of underwriting and
issuing a policy at a monthly maximum amount of $62.50. These expenses are
reflected in surrenders on the accompanying statements of changes in net assets.
d) DEDUCTION OF ANNUAL MAINTENANCE FEE -- Annual maintenance fees are
deducted through termination of units of interest from applicable contract
owners' accounts, in accordance with the terms of the contracts. These expenses
are reflected in surrenders on the accompanying statements of changes in net
assets.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To Hartford Life Insurance Company:
We have audited the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets of Hartford Life
Insurance Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the
related Consolidated Statements of Income, Changes in Stockholder's Equity and
Cash Flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998.
These Consolidated Financial Statements and the schedules referred to below are
the responsibility of Hartford Life Insurance Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
schedules 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 Consolidated Financial Statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Hartford Life
Insurance Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 1998 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The schedules listed in the Index to
Consolidated Financial Statements and Schedules are presented for the purpose of
complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and are not part
of the basic financial statements. These schedules have been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and,
in our opinion, fairly state in all material respects the financial data
required to be set forth therein in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN MILLIONS EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED)
1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
These Consolidated Financial Statements include Hartford Life Insurance
Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries ("Hartford Life Insurance Company" or
the "Company"), Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance Company (ILA) and Hartford
International Life Reassurance Corporation (HLRe), formerly American Skandia
Life Reinsurance Corporation. The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Hartford Life and Accident Insurance Company (HLA), a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Hartford Life, Inc. (Hartford Life). Hartford Life is a direct subsidiary of
Hartford Accident and Indemnity Company (HA&I), an indirect subsidiary of The
Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc. (The Hartford). Pursuant to an initial
public offering (the "IPO") on May 22, 1997, Hartford Life sold 26 million
shares of Class A Common Stock at $28.25 per share and received proceeds, net of
offering expenses, of $687. Of the proceeds, $527 was used to retire debt
related to Hartford Life's outstanding promissory notes and line of credit with
the remaining $160 contributed by Hartford Life to HLA to support growth in its
core businesses. Hartford Life became a publicly traded company upon the sale of
26 million shares representing approximately 18.6% of the equity ownership in
Hartford Life. On December 19, 1995, ITT Industries, Inc. (formerly ITT
Corporation) (ITT) distributed all the outstanding shares of capital stock of
The Hartford to ITT stockholders of record on such date. As a result, The
Hartford became an independent, publicly traded company.
Along with its parent, HLA, the Company is a leading financial services and
insurance company which provides (a) investment products such as individual
variable annuities and fixed market value adjusted annuities, deferred
compensation and retirement plan services and mutual funds for savings and
retirement needs; (b) life insurance for income protection and estate planning;
and (c) employee benefits products such as group life and disability insurance
that is directly written by the Company and is substantially ceded to its
parent, HLA, and (d) corporate owned life insurance.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(A) BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These Consolidated Financial Statements present the financial position,
results of operations and cash flows of the Company. All material intercompany
transactions and balances between the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates
have been eliminated. The Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared on the
basis of generally accepted accounting principles which differ materially from
the statutory accounting practices prescribed by various insurance regulatory
authorities.
The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles, requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most
significant estimates include those used in determining deferred policy
acquisition costs and the liability for future policy benefits and other
policyholder funds. Although some variability is inherent in these estimates,
management believes the amounts provided are adequate.
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year financial information
to conform to the current year presentation.
(B) CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
In November 1998, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) reached consensus on
Issue No. 98-15, "Structured Notes Acquired for a Specific Investment Strategy".
This EITF issue requires companies to account for structured notes acquired for
a specific investment strategy, as a unit. Affected companies that entered into
these notes prior to September 25, 1998 are required to either restate prior
period financial statements to conform with the prescribed unit accounting model
or disclose the related impact on earnings for all periods presented and
cumulatively over the life of the instruments had the registrant accounted for
the structure as a unit. Based upon recently prescribed current generally
accepted accounting principles for such types of transactions entered into after
September 24, 1998, there was no additional earnings impact to the Company
related to combined structured note transactions. As of December 31, 1998, the
Company does not hold any combined structured notes.
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". The new standard establishes
accounting and reporting guidance for derivative instruments, including certain
derivative instruments embedded in other contracts. The standard requires, among
other things, that all derivatives be carried on the balance sheet at fair
value. The standard also specifies hedge accounting criteria under which a
derivative can qualify for special accounting. In order to receive special
accounting, the derivative instrument must qualify as either
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES F-7
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
a hedge of the fair value or the variability of the cash flow of a qualified
asset or liability. Special accounting for qualifying hedges provides for
matching the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with
the recognition of the corresponding changes in value of the hedged item. SFAS
No. 133 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999.
Initial application for Hartford Life Insurance Company will begin for the first
quarter of the year 2000. While Hartford Life Insurance Company is currently in
the process of quantifying the impact of SFAS No. 133, the Company is reviewing
its derivative holdings in order to take actions needed to minimize potential
volatility, while at the same time maintaining the economic protection needed to
support the goals of its business.
In March 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
(AICPA) issued Statement of Position (SOP) No. 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs
of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use". The SOP provides
guidance on accounting for the costs of internal use software and in determining
whether the software is for internal use. The SOP defines internal use software
as software that is acquired, internally developed, or modified solely to meet
internal needs and identifies stages of software development and accounting for
the related costs incurred during the stages. This statement is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998 and is not expected to have a
material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.
Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income", which establishes standards for reporting and display of
comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general purpose
financial statements. The objective of this statement is to report a measure of
all changes in equity of an enterprise that result from transactions and other
economic events of the period other than transactions with owners. Comprehensive
income is the total of net income and all other nonowner changes in equity.
Accordingly, the Company has reported comprehensive income in the Consolidated
Statements of Changes in Stockholder's Equity.
In December 1997, the AICPA issued SOP No. 97-3 "Accounting by Insurance and
Other Enterprises for Insurance Related Assessments". This SOP provides guidance
on accounting by insurance and other enterprises for assessments related to
insurance activities. Specifically, the SOP provides guidance on when a guaranty
fund or other assessment should be recognized, how to measure the liability, and
what information should be disclosed. This SOP will be effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 1998. Adoption of SOP 97-3 is not expected to
have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of
operations.
In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of
an Enterprise and Related Information". The new standard requires public
business enterprises to disclose certain financial and descriptive information
about reportable operating segments in annual financial statements and in
condensed financial statements of interim periods. Operating segments are
components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is
available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in
deciding how to allocate resources and assessing performance. SFAS No. 131 also
establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services,
geographic areas and major customers. The Company adopted SFAS No. 131 in 1998.
For additional information, see Note 13.
On November 14, 1996, the EITF reached a consensus on Issue No. 96-12,
"Recognition of Interest Income and Balance Sheet Classification of Structured
Notes". This EITF issue requires companies to record income on certain
structured securities on a retrospective interest method. The Company adopted
EITF No. 96-12 for structured securities acquired after November 14, 1996.
Adoption of EITF No. 96-12 did not have a material effect on the Company's
financial condition or results of operations.
In June 1996, the FASB issued SFAS No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and
Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities" which is
effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of
liabilities occurring after December 31, 1996. This statement established
criteria for determining whether transferred assets should be accounted for as
sales or secured borrowings. Adoption of SFAS No. 125 did not have a material
effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.
Effective January 1, 1996, Hartford Life Insurance Company adopted SFAS No.
121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to Be Disposed Of ". This statement establishes accounting standards for
the impairment of long-lived assets, certain identifiable intangibles and
goodwill related to those assets to be held and used and for long-lived assets
and certain identifiable intangibles to be disposed. Adoption of SFAS No. 121
did not have a material effect on the Company's financial condition or results
of operations.
The Company's cash flows were not impacted by these changes in accounting
principles.
(C) REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenues for investment products and universal life-type policies consist of
policy charges for policy administration, cost of insurance and surrender
charges assessed to policy account balances and are recognized in the period in
which services are provided. Premiums for traditional life insurance policies
are recognized as revenues when they are due from policyholders.
<PAGE>
F-8 HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(D) FUTURE POLICY BENEFITS AND OTHER POLICYHOLDER FUNDS
Liabilities for future policy benefits are computed by the net level premium
method using interest rate assumptions varying from 3% to 11% and withdrawal and
mortality assumptions appropriate at the time the policies were issued.
Liabilities for universal life-type and investment contracts are stated at
policyholder account values before surrender charges.
(E) INVESTMENTS
Hartford Life Insurance Company's investments in fixed maturities include
bonds and commercial paper which are considered "available for sale" and
accordingly are carried at fair value with the after-tax difference from cost
reflected as a component of stockholder's equity designated "net unrealized
capital gains on securities, net of tax". Equity securities, which include
common and non-redeemable preferred stocks, are carried at fair values with the
after-tax difference from cost reflected in stockholder's equity. Policy loans
are carried at outstanding balance which approximates fair value. Realized
capital gains and losses on security transactions associated with the Company's
immediate participation guaranteed contracts are excluded from revenues and
deferred over the expected maturity of the securities, since under the terms of
the contracts the realized gains and losses will be credited to policyholders in
future years as they are entitled to receive them. Net realized capital gains
and losses, excluding those related to immediate participation guaranteed
contracts, are reported as a component of revenue and are determined on a
specific identification basis.
The Company's accounting policy for impairment requires recognition of an
other than temporary impairment charge on a security if it is determined that
the Company is unable to recover all amounts due under the contractual
obligations of the security. In addition, for securities expected to be sold, an
other than temporary impairment charge is recognized if the Company does not
expect the fair value of a security to recover to cost or amortized cost prior
to the expected date of sale. Once an impairment charge has been recorded, the
Company then continues to review the other than temporarily impaired securities
for additional impairment, if necessary.
(F) DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
Hartford Life Insurance Company uses a variety of derivative instruments
including swaps, caps, floors, forwards and exchange traded financial futures
and options as part of an overall risk management strategy. These instruments
are used as a means of hedging exposure to price, foreign currency and/or
interest rate risk on planned investment purchases or existing assets and
liabilities. The Company does not hold or issue derivative instruments for
trading purposes. Hartford Life Insurance Company's accounting for derivative
instruments used to manage risk is in accordance with the concepts established
in SFAS No. 80, "Accounting for Futures Contracts", SFAS No. 52, "Foreign
Currency Translation", AICPA SOP 86-2, "Accounting for Options" and various EITF
pronouncements. Written options are used, in all cases in conjunction with other
assets and derivatives, as part of the Company's asset and liability management
strategy. Derivative instruments are carried at values consistent with the asset
or liability being hedged. Derivative instruments used to hedge fixed maturities
or equity securities are carried at fair value with the after-tax difference
from cost reflected in Stockholder's Equity. Derivative instruments used to
hedge other invested assets or liabilities are carried at cost. For a discussion
of SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities"
issued in June 1998, see (b) Changes in Accounting Principles.
Derivative instruments must be designated at inception as a hedge and
measured for effectiveness both at inception and on an ongoing basis. Hartford
Life Insurance Company's correlation threshold for hedge designation is 80% to
120%. If correlation, which is assessed monthly and measured based on a rolling
three month average, falls outside the 80% to 120% range, hedge accounting will
be terminated. Derivative instruments used to create a synthetic asset must meet
synthetic accounting criteria including designation at inception and consistency
of terms between the synthetic and the instrument being replicated. Consistent
with industry practice, synthetic instruments are accounted for like the
financial instrument it is intended to replicate. Derivative instruments which
fail to meet risk management criteria, subsequent to acquisition, are marked to
market with the impact reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Gains or losses on financial futures contracts entered into in anticipation
of the investment of future receipt of product cash flows are deferred and, at
the time of the ultimate investment purchase, reflected as an adjustment to the
cost basis of the purchased asset. Gains or losses on futures used in invested
asset risk management are deferred and adjusted into the cost basis of the
hedged asset when the contract futures are closed, except for futures used in
duration hedging which are deferred and basis adjusted on a quarterly basis. The
basis adjustments are amortized into net investment income over the remaining
asset life.
Open forward commitment contracts are marked to market through stockholder's
equity. Such contracts are accounted for at settlement by recording the purchase
of the specified securities at the previously committed price. Gains or losses
resulting from the termination of forward commitment contracts before the
delivery of the securities are recognized immediately in the Consolidated
Statements of Income as a component of net investment income.
The cost of options entered into as part of a risk management strategy are
basis adjusted to the underlying asset or liability and amortized over the
remaining life of the
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES F-9
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
option. Gains or losses on expiration or termination are adjusted into the basis
of the underlying asset or liability and amortized over the remaining asset
life.
Interest rate swaps involve the periodic exchange of payments without the
exchange of underlying principal or notional amounts. Net receipts or payments
are accrued and recognized over the life of the swap agreement as an adjustment
to investment income. Should the swap be terminated, the gain or loss is
adjusted into the basis of the asset or liability and amortized over the
remaining life. Should the hedged asset be sold or liability terminated without
terminating the swap position, any swap gains or losses are immediately
recognized in net investment income. Interest rate swaps purchased in
anticipation of an asset purchase (anticipatory transaction) are recognized
consistent with the underlying asset components such that the settlement
component is recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income while the
change in market value is recognized as an unrealized capital gain or loss.
Premiums paid on purchased floor or cap agreements and the premium received
on issued cap or floor agreements (used for risk management) are adjusted into
the basis of the applicable asset and amortized over the asset life. Gains or
losses on termination of such positions are adjusted into the basis of the asset
or liability and amortized over the remaining asset life. Net payments are
recognized as an adjustment to income or basis adjusted and amortized depending
on the specific hedge strategy.
Forward exchange contracts and foreign currency swaps are accounted for in
accordance with SFAS No. 52. Changes in the spot rate of instruments designated
as hedges of the net investment in a foreign subsidiary are reflected in the
cumulative translation adjustments component of stockholder's equity. Cash flows
from futures, options, and swaps, accounted for as hedges, are included with the
cash flows of the item being hedged.
(G) SEPARATE ACCOUNTS
Hartford Life Insurance Company maintains separate account assets and
liabilities which are reported at fair value. Separate account assets are
segregated from other investments. Separate accounts reflect two categories of
risk assumption: non-guaranteed separate accounts, wherein the policyholder
assumes the investment risk and rewards, and guaranteed separate account assets,
wherein the Company contractually guarantees either a minimum return or account
value to the policyholder.
(H) DEFERRED POLICY ACQUISITION COSTS
Policy acquisition costs, which include commissions and certain underwriting
expenses associated with acquiring business, are deferred and amortized over the
estimated lives of the contracts, usually 20 years. Generally, acquisition costs
are deferred and amortized using the retrospective deposit method. Under the
retrospective deposit method, acquisition costs are amortized in proportion to
the present value of expected gross profits from surrender charges, investment
charges, mortality and expense margins. Actual gross profits can vary from
management's estimates resulting in increases or decreases in the rate of
amortization. Management periodically updates these estimates, when appropriate,
and evaluates the recoverability of the deferred acquisition cost asset. When
appropriate, management revises its assumptions on the estimated gross profits
of these contracts and the cumulative amortization for the books of business are
re-estimated and adjusted by a cumulative charge or credit to income.
Acquisition costs and their related deferral are included in the Company's
other expenses as follows:

(I) DIVIDENDS TO POLICYHOLDERS
Certain life insurance policies contain dividend payment provisions that
enable the policyholder to participate in the earnings on that participating
block of business. The participating insurance in force accounted for 71%, 55%
and 44% in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively, of total insurance in force.

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of fixed maturity investments as
of December 31, 1998 by estimated maturity year are shown below. Expected
maturities differ from contractual maturities due to call or prepayment
provisions. Asset backed securities, including mortgage backed securities and
collateralized mortgage obligations, are distributed to maturity year based on
the Company's estimates of the rate of future prepayments of principal over the
remaining lives of the securities. These estimates are developed using
prepayment speeds provided in broker

consensus data. Such estimates are derived from prepayment speeds experienced at
the interest rate levels projected for the applicable underlying collateral and
can be expected to vary from actual experience.

Sales of fixed maturities, excluding short-term fixed maturities, for the
years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996 resulted in proceeds of $3.2
billion, $4.2 billion and $3.5 billion, gross realized capital gains of $103,
$169 and $87, gross realized capital losses (including writedowns) of $131, $176
and $298, respectively. In 1996, gross realized capital losses includes an other
than temporary impairment of $137 related to the Company's block of guaranteed
investment contract business written prior to 1995 which could not recover to
amortized cost prior to sale. Sales of equity security investments for the years
ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996 resulted in proceeds of $35, $132 and $74
and gross realized capital gains of $21, $12 and $2, respectively, and no gross
realized capital losses for all periods.
(F) CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
The Company is not exposed to any significant concentration of credit risk
in fixed maturities of a single issuer greater than 10% of stockholder's equity.
(G) DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
Hartford Life Insurance Company utilizes a variety of derivative
instruments, including swaps, caps, floors, forwards and exchange traded futures
and options, in accordance with Company policy and in order to achieve one of
three Company approved objectives: to hedge risk arising from interest rate,
price or currency exchange rate volatility; to manage liquidity; or, to control
transactions costs. The Company utilizes derivative instruments to manage market
risk through four principal risk management strategies: hedging anticipated
transactions, hedging liability instruments, hedging invested assets and hedging
portfolios of assets and/or liabilities. The Company does not trade in these
instruments for the express purpose of earning trading profits.
Hartford Life Insurance Company maintains a derivatives counterparty
exposure policy which establishes market-based credit limits, favors long-term
financial stability and creditworthiness, and typically requires credit
enhancement/credit risk reducing agreements. Credit risk is measured as the
amount owed to the Company based on current market conditions and potential
payment obligations between the Company and its counterparties. Credit exposures
are quantified weekly and netted, and collateral is pledged to or held by the
Company to the extent the current value of derivatives exceed exposure policy
thresholds.
Hartford Life Insurance Company's derivative program is monitored by an
internal compliance unit and is reviewed by senior management and Hartford
Life's Finance Committee of the Board of Directors. Notional amounts, which
represent the basis upon which pay or receive amounts are calculated and are not
reflective of credit risk, pertaining to derivative financial instruments
(excluding the Company's guaranteed separate account derivative investments),
totaled $6.2 billion and $6.5 billion ($3.9 billion and $4.6 billion related to
the Company's investments, $2.3 billion and $1.9 billion on the Company's
liabilities) as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
The tables below provide a summary of derivative instruments held by
Hartford Life Insurance Company as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, segregated by

(1) Inverse floaters are variations of collateralized mortgage obligations
(CMO's) for which the coupon rates move inversely with an index rate such as the
London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). The risk to principal is considered
negligible as the underlying collateral for the securities is guaranteed or
sponsored by government agencies. To address the volatility risk created by the
coupon variability, the Company uses a variety of derivative instruments,
primarily interest rate swaps, caps and floors.
(2) As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, approximately 5% and 44% ,
respectively, of the notional futures contracts expire within one year.
(3) As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, approximately 11% and 16%,
respectively, of foreign currency swaps expire within one year.
(4) Deferred gains and losses on anticipatory transactions are included in
the carrying value of fixed maturities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. At
the time of the ultimate purchase, they are reflected as a basis adjustment to
the purchased asset. As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company had no
deferred gains for interest rate swaps. During 1998, $1.5 in deferred gains were
basis adjusted.

4. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
SFAS No. 107 "Disclosure about Fair Value of Financial Instruments" requires
disclosure of fair value information of financial instruments. For certain
financial instruments where quoted market prices are not available, other
independent valuation techniques and assumptions are used. Because considerable
judgment is used, these estimates are not necessarily indicative of amounts that
could be realized in a current market exchange. SFAS No. 107 excludes certain
financial instruments from disclosure, including insurance contracts. Hartford
Life Insurance Company uses the following methods and assumptions in estimating
the fair value of each class of financial instrument.
Fair value for fixed maturities and marketable equity securities
approximates those quotations published by applicable stock exchanges or
received from other reliable sources.
For policy loans, carrying amounts approximate fair value.
Fair value for other invested assets primarily consist of partnerships and
trusts that are based on external market valuations from partnership and trust
management as well as mortgage loans where carrying amounts approximate fair
value.
Other policyholder funds fair value information is determined by estimating
future cash flows, discounted at the current market rate.
The fair value of derivative financial instruments, including swaps, caps,
floors, futures, options and forward commitments, is determined using a pricing
model which is validated through periodic comparison to dealer quoted prices.
The carrying amount and fair values of Hartford Life Insurance Company's
financial instruments as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 were as follows:

5. SEPARATE ACCOUNTS
Hartford Life Insurance Company maintained separate account assets and
liabilities totaling $90.3 billion and $69.1 billion as of December 31, 1998 and
1997, respectively, which are reported at fair value. Separate account assets,
which are segregated from other investments, reflect two categories of risk
assumption: non-guaranteed separate accounts totaling $80.6 billion and $58.6
billion as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, wherein the policyholder
assumes the investment risk, and guaranteed separate accounts totaling $9.7 and
$10.5 billion as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, wherein Hartford
Life Insurance Company contractually guarantees either a minimum return or
account value to the policyholder. Included in non-guaranteed separate account
assets were policy loans totaling $1.8 billion and $1.9 billion as of December
31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Net investment income (including net realized
capital gains and losses) and interest credited to policyholders on separate
account assets are not reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Separate account management fees and other revenues were $908, $699 and $538
in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The guaranteed separate accounts include
fixed market value adjusted (MVA) individual annuity and modified guaranteed
life insurance. The average credited interest rate on these contracts was 6.6%
and 6.5% as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The assets that support
these liabilities were comprised of $9.5 billion and $10.2 billion in fixed
maturities as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The portfolios are
segregated from other investments and are managed to minimize liquidity and
interest rate risk. In order to minimize the risk of disintermediation
associated with early withdrawals, fixed MVA annuity and modified guaranteed
life insurance contracts carry a graded surrender charge as well as a market
value adjustment. Additional investment risk is hedged using a variety of
derivatives which totaled $40 and $119 in carrying value and $3.5 billion and
$3.0 billion in notional amounts as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

</TABLE>
A significant percentage of the consolidated statutory surplus is
permanently reinvested or is subject to various state regulatory restrictions
which limit the payment of dividends without prior approval. The total amount of
statutory dividends which may be paid by the insurance subsidiaries of the
Company in 1999 is estimated to be $168.
Hartford Life Insurance Company and its domestic insurance subsidiaries
prepare their statutory financial statements in accordance with accounting
practices prescribed by the State of Connecticut. Prescribed statutory
accounting practices include publications of the National Association of
Insurance Commissioners, as well as state laws, regulations, and general
administrative rules.
7. STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS
Hartford Life Insurance Company's employees are included in the 1997
Hartford Life, Inc. Incentive Stock Plan (the "Plan"), which was adopted during
the second quarter of 1997. Under the Plan, options granted may be either
non-qualified options or incentive stock options qualifying under Section 422A
of the Internal Revenue Code. The aggregate number of shares of Class A Common
Stock which may be awarded in any one year shall be subject to an annual limit.
The maximum number of shares of Class A Common Stock which may be granted under
the Plan in each year shall be 1.5% of the total issued and outstanding shares
of Hartford Life Class A Common Stock and treasury stock as reported in the
Annual Report on Hartford Life's Form 10-K for the preceding year plus unused
portions of such limit from prior years. In addition, no more than 5 million
shares of Class A Common Stock shall be cumulatively available for awards of
incentive stock options under the Plan, and no more than 20% of the total number
of shares on a cumulative basis shall be available for restricted stock and
performance shares.
All options granted have an exercise price equal to the market price of
Hartford Life's stock on the date of grant and an option's maximum term is ten
years. Certain nonperformance based options become exercisable upon the
attainment of specified market price appreciation of Hartford Life's common
shares or at seven years after the date of grant, while the remaining
nonperformance based options become exercisable over a three year period
commencing with the date of grant.
Also included in the Plan are long-term performance awards which become
payable upon the attainment of specific performance goals achieved over a three
year period.
During the second quarter of 1997, Hartford Life established the Hartford
Life, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP). Under this plan, eligible
employees of Hartford Life and the Company may purchase Class A Common Stock of
Hartford Life at a 15% discount from the lower of the market price at the
beginning or end of the quarterly offering period. Hartford Life may sell up to
2,700,000 shares of stock to eligible employees. Hartford Life sold 121,943 and
54,316 shares under the ESPP in 1998 and 1997, respectively. The weighted
average fair value of the discount under the ESPP was $13.80 per share in 1998
and $9.63 per share in 1997.

8. POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT AND SAVINGS PLANS
(A) PENSION PLANS
Hartford Life Insurance Company's employees are included in The Hartford's
noncontributory defined benefit pension plans. These plans provide pension
benefits that are based on years of service and the employee's compensation
during the last ten years of employment. The Company's funding policy is to
contribute annually an amount between the minimum funding requirements set forth
in the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and the
maximum amount that can be deducted for U.S. Federal income tax purposes.
Generally, pension costs are funded through the purchase of the Company's group
pension contracts. The cost to the Company was approximately $6 in 1998 and $5
in both 1997 and 1996.
The Company also provides, through The Hartford, certain health care and
life insurance benefits for eligible retired employees. A substantial portion of
the Company's employees may become eligible for these benefits upon retirement.
The Company's contribution for health care benefits will depend on the retiree's
date of retirement and years of service. In addition, the plan has a defined
dollar cap which limits average Company contributions. The Company has prefunded
a portion of the health care and life insurance obligations through trust funds
where such prefunding can be accomplished on a tax effective basis.
Postretirement health care and life insurance benefits expense, allocated by The
Hartford, was immaterial to the results of operations for 1998, 1997 and 1996.
The assumed rate in the per capita cost of health care (the health care
trend rate) was 7.8% for 1998, decreasing ratably to 5.0% in the year 2003.
Increasing the health care trend rates by one percent per year would have an
immaterial impact on the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation and the
annual expense. To the extent that the actual experience differs from the
inherent assumptions, the effect will be amortized over the average future
service of covered employees.
(B) INVESTMENT AND SAVINGS PLAN
Substantially all employees of the Company are eligible to participate in
The Hartford's Investment and Savings Plan. Under this plan, designated
contributions, which may be invested in Class A Common Stock of Hartford Life or
certain other investments, are matched, up to 3% of compensation, by the
Company. The cost to Hartford Life Insurance Company for the above-mentioned
plan was approximately $4 and $2 in 1998 and 1997, respectively.
9. REINSURANCE
Hartford Life Insurance Company cedes insurance to other insurers, including
its parent, HLA, in order to limit its maximum loss. Such transfer does not
relieve the Company of its primary liability. The Company also assumes insurance
from other insurers. Failure of reinsurers to honor their obligations could
result in losses to the Company. The Company evaluates the financial condition
of its reinsurers and monitors concentration of credit risk.
Net premiums and other considerations were comprised of the following:

</TABLE>
The Company ceded approximately $128, $76 and $100 of group life premium to
HLA in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively, representing $38.4 billion, $33.6
billion and $33.3 billion of insurance in force, respectively. The Company ceded
$383, $339 and $318 of accident and health premium to HLA in 1998, 1997 and
1996, respectively. The Company assumed $82, $89 and $101 of premium in 1998,
1997 and 1996, respectively, representing $7.4 billion, $8.2 billion and $8.5
billion of individual life insurance in force, respectively, from HLA.
Life reinsurance recoveries, which reduce death and other benefits,
approximated $97, $158 and $140 for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and
1996, respectively.
Hartford Life Insurance Company has no significant reinsurance-related
concentrations of credit risk.
10. INCOME TAX
Hartford Life and The Hartford have entered into a tax sharing agreement
under which each member in the consolidated U.S. Federal income tax return will
make payments between them such that, with respect to any period, the amount of
taxes to be paid by the Company, subject to certain adjustments, generally will
be determined as though the Company were filing separate Federal, state and
local income tax returns.
As long as The Hartford continues to own at least 80% of the combined voting
power and 80% of the value of the outstanding capital stock of Hartford Life,
the Company will be included for Federal income tax purposes in the affiliated
group of which The Hartford is the common parent. It is the intention of The
Hartford and its non-life subsidiaries to file a single consolidated Federal
income tax return. The life insurance companies will file a separate
consolidated federal income tax return. The Company's effective tax rate was
35%, 36% and 35% in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

</TABLE>
Hartford Life Insurance Company had a current tax payable of $65 and $64 as
of December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
Prior to the Tax Reform Act of 1984, the Life Insurance Company Income Tax
Act of 1959 permitted the deferral from taxation of a portion of statutory
income under certain circumstances. In these situations, the deferred income was
accumulated in a "Policyholders' Surplus Account" and, based on current tax law,
will be taxable in the future only under conditions which management considers
to be remote; therefore, no Federal income taxes have been provided on this
deferred income. The balance for tax return purposes of the Policyholders'
Surplus Account as of December 31, 1998 was $104.
11. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Transactions of the Company with HA&I and its affiliates relate principally
to tax settlements, reinsurance, insurance coverage, rental and service fees,
payment of dividends and capital contributions. In addition, certain affiliated
insurance companies purchased group annuity contracts from the Company to fund
pension costs and claim annuities to settle casualty claims. Substantially all
general insurance expenses related to the Company, including rent and employee
benefit plan expenses, are initially paid by The Hartford. Direct expenses are
allocated to the Company using specific identification, and indirect expenses
are allocated using other applicable methods. Indirect expenses include those
for corporate areas which, depending on type, are allocated based on either a
percentage of direct expenses or on utilization. Indirect expenses allocated to
the Company by The Hartford were $47, $34 and $40 in 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively. Management believes that the methods used are reasonable.
12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
(A) LITIGATION
Hartford Life Insurance Company is involved in pending and threatened
litigation in the normal course of its business in which claims for monetary and
punitive damages have been asserted. Although there can be no assurances, at the
present time the Company does not anticipate that the ultimate liability arising
from such pending or threatened litigation, after consideration of provisions
made for potential losses and costs of defense, will have a material adverse
effect on the financial condition or operating results of the Company.
(B) GUARANTY FUNDS
Under insurance guaranty fund laws in each state, the District of Columbia
and Puerto Rico, insurers licensed to do business can be assessed by state
insurance guaranty associations for certain obligations of insolvent insurance
companies to policyholders and claimants. Recent regulatory actions against
certain large life insurers encountering financial difficulty have prompted
various state insurance guaranty associations to begin assessing life insurance
companies for the deemed losses. Most of these laws do provide, however, that an
assessment may be excused or deferred if it would threaten an insurer's solvency
and further provide annual limits on such assessments. Part of the assessments
paid by the Company and its subsidiaries pursuant to these laws may be used as
credits for a portion of the associated premium taxes. The Company paid guaranty
fund assessments of approximately $9, $15 and $11 in 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively, of which $4, $4 and $5, respectively, were estimated to be
creditable against premium taxes.
(C) LEASES
The rent paid to Hartford Fire for space occupied by the Company was $7 in
both 1998 and 1997 and $3 in 1996. Future minimum rental commitments are as
follows:

HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES F-17

Rental expense is recognized on a level basis over the term of the primary
sublease, which expires on December 31, 2009, and amounted to approximately $9
in both 1998 and 1997 and $8 in 1996.
(D) TAX MATTERS
Hartford Life's federal income tax returns are routinely audited by the
Internal Revenue Service. Hartford Life is currently under audit for the years
1993 through 1995, with the audit for the years 1996 through 1997 expected to
begin during early 1999. Management believes that adequate provision has been
made in the financial statements for items that may result from tax examinations
and other tax related matters.
(E) INVESTMENTS
As of December 31, 1998, Hartford Life Insurance Company held $71 of asset
backed securities securitized and serviced by Commercial Financial Services,
Inc. (CFS) of which $50 were included in the Company's general account and $21
in the Company's guaranteed separate account. In October 1998, the Company
became aware of allegations of improper activities at CFS. On December 11, 1998,
CFS filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. As of December
31, 1998, CFS continues to service the asset backed securities, which remain
current on payments of principal and interest, however, the Company does not
expect to recover all of its principal investment. Based upon information
available in the fourth quarter 1998, the Company recognized a $25, after-tax,
writedown related to its holdings in CFS of which $18 was related to the
Company's general account assets. The ultimate realizable amount depends on the
outcome of the bankruptcy of CFS and these estimates are therefore subject to
material change as new information becomes available. The Company is presently
unable to determine the amount of further potential loss, if any, related to the
securities.
13. SEGMENT INFORMATION
Hartford Life Insurance Company adopted SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information", during the fourth quarter of
1998. This statement replaces SFAS No. 14, "Financial Reporting for Segments of
a Business Enterprise", and establishes new standards for reporting information
about operating segments in annual financial statements and in interim financial
reports issued to shareholders. It also establishes standards for related
disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers.
This statement requires that the reportable operating segments be based on the
Company's internal operations. On this basis, Hartford Life Insurance Company's
segments represent strategic operations which offer different products and
services as well as serve different markets.
Hartford Life Insurance Company is organized into three reportable operating
segments which include Investment Products, Individual Life and Corporate Owned
Life Insurance (COLI). Investment Products offers individual variable annuities,
fixed market value adjusted (MVA) annuities and fixed and variable immediate
annuities, mutual funds, deferred compensation and retirement plan services,
structured settlement contracts and other special purpose annuity contracts.
Individual Life sells a variety of life insurance products, including variable
life, universal life, interest-sensitive whole life and term life insurance.
COLI primarily offers variable products used by employers to fund non-qualified
benefits or other post-employment benefit obligations as well as leveraged COLI.
The Company includes in "Other" corporate items not directly allocable to any of
its reportable operating segments as well as certain employee benefit products
including group life and disability insurance that is directly written by the
Company and is substantially ceded to its parent, HLA.
The accounting policies of the reportable operating segments are the same as
those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in Note 2.
Hartford Life Insurance Company evaluates performance of its segments based on
revenues, net income and the segment's return on allocated capital. The Company
charges direct operating expenses to the appropriate segment and allocates the
majority of indirect expenses to the segments based on an intercompany expense
arrangement. Intersegment revenues are not significant and primarily occur
between corporate and the operating segments. These amounts include interest
income on allocated surplus and the amortization of net realized capital gains
and losses through net investment income utilizing the duration of the segment's
investment portfolios. The Company's revenues are primarily derived from
customers within the United States. The Company's long-lived assets primarily
consist of deferred policy acquisition costs and deferred tax assets from within
the United States. The following table outlines summarized financial information
concerning the Company's segments. The information for 1997 and 1996 has been
restated to conform to the 1998 presentation.
