                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

                                  June 30, 1998

                                   (Unaudited)

1.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of The
         Manufacturers Life Insurance Company of America and its wholly-owned
         subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
         accounting principles ("GAAP"), except that they do not contain
         complete notes. However, in the opinion of management, these statements
         include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair
         presentation of the results. These financial statements should be read
         in conjunction with the financial statements and the related notes
         included in ManAmerica's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended
         December 31, 1997. Operating results for the six months ended June 30,
         1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected
         for the full year ending December 31, 1998.


2.       COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

         The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)
         130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income". SFAS 130 establishes standards
         for reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components in
         a full set of general-purpose annual financial statements.
         Comprehensive income includes all changes in capital and surplus during
         a period except those resulting from investments by, and distributions
         to shareholders. The adoption of SFAS 130 resulted in revised and
         additional disclosures but had no effect on the financial position,
         results of operations, or liquidity of the Company.

         Total comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and
         1997 was as follows:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

The following analysis of the consolidated results of operations and financial
condition of the Manufacturers Life Insurance Company of America, (hereafter
referred to as "ManAmerica" or the "Company") should be read in conjunction with
the Consolidated Financial Statements and the related Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements.

CORPORATE STRUCTURE

The Company is a direct wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary of The Manufacturers Life
Insurance Company (U.S.A.) ("ManUSA"), which in turn is a direct wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Manulife Reinsurance Corporation (U.S.A.) ("MRC"). MRC is an
indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of The Manufacturers Life Insurance Company
("Manulife Financial"), a Canadian mutual insurance company. Manulife Financial,
with consolidated assets under management at December 31, 1997 of $79.7 billion
($Can), actively operates in thirteen countries worldwide. Manulife Financial
has been doing business in the United States since 1903. The Company markets
variable annuity and variable life products in the United States and traditional
insurance products in Taiwan.


IMPACT OF YEAR 2000

Preparing computer systems to deal with the Year 2000 risk has become a major
issue for businesses throughout the world. Within the Manulife Financial group,
a group-wide program has been underway since 1996 to make all critical systems
compliant by the end of 1998 and other systems compliant by the end of 1999.
Included in this program are all systems applicable to and shared by the Company
with Manulife Financial. Based on a detailed assessment, Manulife Financial
determined that a portion of its software needs to be modified or replaced so
that its computer systems will function properly into the Year 2000 and beyond.
Like most companies, the Year 2000 issue represents a significant challenge for
Manulife Financial and extensive resources have been dedicated to modifying
existing software and to converting to new software. However, there can be no
assurances that Manulife Financial's systems, nor those of other companies on
which Manulife Financial relies, will be fully converted on a timely basis and
therefore that all adverse effect on the Company due to the Year 2000 risk will
be avoided. Manulife Financial is presently consulting with vendors, customers,
subsidiaries, third-parties and other businesses with which it deals to ensure
that no material aspect of its, or the Company's, operations will be hindered by
the Year 2000 risk.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, but not limited to,

REVIEW OF CONSOLIDATED OPERATING RESULTS AND CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL CONDITION

The discussion that follows focuses on the results for the six months ended June
30, 1998 compared to the results for the six months ended June 30, 1997.

DEPOSITS AND PREMIUMS

The strong growth in variable insurance sales experienced during the first
quarter of 1998 leveled off during the second quarter. Variable universal life
(VUL) deposits of $103.1 million for the first half of 1998 were 23% higher than
the VUL deposits of $83.7 million for the same period in 1997. VUL deposits for
the three months ended June 30, 1998 increased by $45.6 million compared to an
increase of $40.5 million for the same period in 1997. Sales of the
corporate-owned (COLI) Variable Universal Life contract, which was introduced in
1997, continued to increase in the second quarter of 1998 compared to 1997,
though at a slower pace than in the first quarter of 1998. The growth in the
COLI business in the first half of 1998 has contributed to the increase in
separate account assets which have grown from $897 million at the end of 1997 to
$1,015 million at the end of the first half of 1998.

Overall premium income for the first half of 1998 was $4.2 million compared to
$3.6 million for the same period of 1997. U.S. premiums assumed from ManUSA have
decreased $0.2 million and Taiwan premiums have increased by $0.8 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to the same period of 1997.


FEE INCOME

Fee income increased to $26.0 million in the first half of 1998, compared to
$22.4 million for the same period in 1997. The majority of the increase in fee
income is attributable to cost of insurance charges on a larger inforce block of
business in 1998 compared to 1997, and management fees earned on separate
account assets which have increased significantly in 1998 compared to 1997 as
explained by the growth in deposits above.


NET INVESTMENT INCOME

Net investment income was $2.6 million in the first half of 1998, compared to
$6.7 million in the same period of 1997. Included in the 1997 net investment
income amount is approximately $2.5 million of interest earned on the
Manufacturers Life Mortgage Securities Corporation ("MLMSC") bonds which were
repaid on March 1, 1997. Excluding this item, net investment income in the first
half of 1998 decreased by approximately $1.6 million compared to the same period
of 1997. This decrease is due to a decrease in bond holdings during the first
half of 1998 compared to the first half of 1997.


POLICYHOLDER BENEFITS

Policyholder benefits were $7.6 million in the first half of 1998, compared to
$1.7 million in the first half of 1997. This increase is primarily due to
increased reserves for the Taiwan business due to new business and a slower
run-off of reserves in the first half of 1998 as lower surrender levels were
experienced compared to the first half of 1997.


EXPENSES AND DEFERRED ACQUISITION COSTS (DAC) AMORTIZATION

Operating costs and expenses, including commissions, were $44.4 million for the
first half of 1998 compared to $32.7 million for the first half of 1997 before
deferral of acquisition expenses ($20.8 million and $18.4 million respectively
net of deferred acquisition expenses). The increase in expenses in the first





                                       9
<PAGE>   10

half of 1998 is primarily attributable to costs incurred in the development and
sale of the COLI variable universal life product introduced in 1997. A
significant portion of these expenses have been deferred in the first half of
1998 resulting in an increase in the DAC asset as explained below. The DAC
amortization expense for the first half of 1998 was $4.5 million compared to
$7.3 million for the same period in 1997. This decrease is due primarily to a
lower DAC amortization rate used in 1998 compared to 1997 because of assumption
changes.



NET INCOME

The net loss in the first half of 1998 was $1.7 million, compared to net income
of $0.8 million in the same period of 1997. Increased fee income and lower DAC
amortization expense in the first half of 1998 were more than offset by
significantly higher policyholder benefits and operating costs and expenses and
lower investment income.


ASSETS

Separate account assets were $1,015 million at the end of the first half of
1998, compared to $897 million at the end of 1997. This growth reflects net cash
transfers to the separate accounts of $47.2 million, and $70.8 million of gains
due primarily to strong investment performance in the first quarter of 1998 of
the underlying investment funds and growth in the COLI business. For the three
months ended June 30, 1998, net transfers totalled $15.4 million compared to
$19.0 million for the same period in 1997, and investment losses of $6.0 million
were recorded in the three months ended June 30, 1998 compared to investment
gains of $75.8 million in 1997. The poor investment performance in the three
months ended June 30, 1998 is due to unfavorable stock market performance during
this period.

DAC increased from $130.4 million at the end of 1997 to $149.1 million as at the
end of the first half of 1998. This increase is primarily due to deferrable
acquisition costs associated with the development of the COLI product introduced
in 1997.


LIABILITIES

The Company's separate account liabilities increased $117.9 million. Separate
Account liabilities move in tandem with changes in Separate Account assets.

General account liabilities decreased from $162.8 million at the end of 1997 to
$132.4 million at June 30, 1998 due to the conversion of a note payable of
approximately $34 million to capital in the second quarter. See note 4 for
additional details.
